I totally agree w/jake. Let's not start evasive. Let's just say we'll respond soon. Pretty busy day. ________________________________ I'm fine deferring but I do think that on no-brainers like this we shouldn't let the questions build. Rather than give punt language that sounds like a dodge just say you'll get back to him when you can. We did just start.

I think we all know that we have to be incredibly careful here, but seems like it's a tougher one to put off... Maybe we can say something along lines of (and I can come up with something much better than this), though Hillary (has said/believes?) "she hopes the Supreme Court comes down on the side of all same-sex couples being allowed to marry" and just leave it at that? Just feel like it would be nice to not weigh in on this immediately on this but do not know if that is possible.

Adrienne, can you handle? ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Jesse -- Ruby told me that you are the person to reach: Previously Sec. Clinton has been ambiguous, to my knowledge, on whether she believes same-sex couples have a constitutional right to marriage. Does Sec. Clinton believe states can ban same-sex couples from marrying, or does she believe such bans are unconstitutional?
