Personal finance whiz and out-lesbian Suze Orman has a message for gay Republicans and odds are they?re not going to like it, but it?s true. Today, on The View, Suze Orman made the extremely salient point that social issues affect financial issues, and gay Republicans (not to mention, gay Democrats, and anyone with a conscience,) should look at the impact social issues have on fiscal issues. ?Obviously, it is no secret that I?m gay. So it is very difficult for me to look at any Republican nominee and go, ?Oh, that?s who I want in office.? Now, I understand that President Obama isn?t necessarily for marriage but I do believe that I have more of a chance??
Barbara Walters interjects, saying, ?You?re voting on a social issue.?
Orman replies, ?That?s correct? My social issue affects my financial issue. And the reason why it affects my financial issue is ?cause if I die, KT [Orman's partner] is going to lose ? my partner ? is going to lose 50 percent of what I have because we can?t be married.?
Orman added that out of all the Republicans, she would rather see Mitt Romney win because his views are more moderate.
