President Obama has declared his support of same-sex marriage, a day after North Carolina approved a constitutional amendment defining marriage as a union between a man and a woman. We’ll get reaction from people advocating for and against same-sex marriage, and discuss what this decision may mean for the presidential election.

Guests:

Marc Sandalow, associate academic director at the University of California's Washington Center, Washington editor of the California News Service and author of "Madame Speaker: Nancy Pelosi's Life, Times and Rise to Power"

Bill Whalen, research fellow at the Hoover Institution

Chris LeHane, Democratic consultant, partner at Fabiani and Lehane and former press secretary for Al Gore throughout the 2000 campaign
