LaSalvia,
a
former
Log
Cabin
policy
director,
said
he's
had
discussions
with
gay
Republicans
at
GOP
events
and

of
opportunities
to
provide
a
voice
for
gay
conservatives…We're
looking
at
a
political
landscape
where
gay
Republicans
aren't
represented,'

said. 'Log
Cabin's
absence
has
left
a
void
on
the
political
landscape.' Log

didn't
respond
to
the
Blade's
request
for
comment,
is
operating
at
minimal
capacity
even
as
it
prepares
for
its
annual
national
convention,
which
will
take
place
in

Orman had a crush on. 'It was late and Susie had fallen asleep with her
