Rick
I agree with Rick. Until recently, the main tactic in the gay marriage battle was to win in as many states as possible, then approach the Supreme Court and/or the Congress to spread the right to marry to the whole country. Now, if we lose in the Supreme Court, it could be a loooonnnng time before we get another shot at equal rights nationally.

This lawsuit certainly has two sharp edges to it.
