More than perhaps anyone else in America, David Blankenhorn personifies the struggle so many have experienced over same-sex marriage.
First he was agnostic, then he was against it, now he’s for it.
This is to say that Blankenhorn — a long-standing opponent of same-sex marriage — has shifted his energies to saving the institution of marriage, regardless of whom one chooses as a mate.
If you’re unfamiliar with Blankenhorn, it is because he hasn’t been barking his positions on television the way so many ideologues do. And this may be because he is not strictly an ideologue but one of those rare people who agonize in search of the right thing.
