...Cody, Wyo., at Yellowstone's doorstep, where a national gay-straight alliance, the Republican Unity Coalition (R.U.C.), was founded two years ago and counts former President Gerald Ford among its board members. Or visit Casper, Wyo.--hometown of Vice President Dick Cheney, who has warmly embraced his openly lesbian daughter Mary--where Guy Padgett III, a member of the city council, decided last week to come out publicly for the first time, in this article.

When Padgett decided to run for city council last year, he complied with the rules, sort of. To extend a metaphor, he resided in the closet but kept its door ajar. He was living in the same house as his partner, Jason Marsden, 31, and he gave that address as his campaign headquarters. Marsden, executive director of a conservation group, came out in a Casper Star-Tribune op-ed shortly after the Shepard murder, so everyone knew he was gay. "Honestly, if anyone...
