"Dana Beyer, an Equality Maryland board member who is transgender, announced last week she was leaving Clinton's gay steering committee to join Obama's gay leadership council.

"It's time to stop squabbling amongst ourselves, pull together and take back the presidency," she wrote in a letter explaining her decision. "I say this with respect for the Clintons, and I say it as a woman who has had to fight every day of her life to simply be a woman, and be recognized as one, let alone a strong one." "
