Kicking off the North East Regional Pride Conference (NERP) on Feb. 29, Congressman Barney Frank predicted sweeping advances for the LGBT community should Democrats take the White House and build on their congressional majorities in the 2008 elections.

"Here's where we are if the Democrats win the presidency, the House and a few more Senate seats: we will get a transgender-inclusive hate crimes bill through in the first couple months," said the openly gay Newton Democrat to applause from a crowd of about 40 at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in downtown Boston.
