David Catania loses seat at GOP convention
David Catania, one of the Austin 12 Log Cabin Republicans who met with President Bush before the 2000 election, has left the D.C. Republican group after losing his seat at the GOP convention this fall. Catania said he would have voted for Bush during the convention, but that he could not vote for him in the general election because of the gay marriage issue. Catania complained about Bush's campaign promises as a compassionate conservative, saying, "You don't hear much anymore about compassion in the White House." Carol Shwarz, the other Republican on the D.C. council resigned in protest of the decision against Catania.
