"In November (2008), Prop 8 passed, new gay marriages were prohibited in California, and the mayor of San Francisco was immortalized as the face of the radical gay agenda in the state.
How did Newsom let this happen to himself? The question has puzzled many in the Democratic Party. In 2003, when he was elected the youngest mayor of San Francisco in a century, party leaders embraced him as a rising star, headed for a bright national career. But then he seemed to go crazy."

"Shocking behavior from Newsom would soon become the norm in San Francisco. In a two-year period, he divorced his wife, Kimberly Guilfoyle, admitted to an affair, admitted to being an alcoholic—and still he managed to win re-election with 72 percent of the vote."
"How can I be anon when I am govner of California. Aunt Nance put me in. I give her wine from the wineries that Getty gave me and she makes sure there are enuf votes."
San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer (R) also tweeted after Newsom signed the bill into law, “As a parent I’m appalled that last night our governor signed a law maintaining a 24-year-old can have sex with a 14-year-old and it not be considered predatory.”
“An adult who commits ANY sex act on a minor 10 years younger must be registered a sex offender,” he added. “Law must be changed.”
