only when the federal defense of marriage act is tossed, will this amendment have any grounds for movement. that hasn't happened yet, but the first challenge will likely come very soon - as soon as the first couple married in MASS is denied the recognition by Florida or some other state.

let's have it out on this issue in this political year. But I will be honest, even though the polls show opposition to gay marriage, I don't think its an issue that will change most people's votes.

My prediction - the gays have won this. The amendment will not pass, the votes just aren't there, and we won't be able to get one of the liberal SCOTUS justices replaced in time to prevent a 5-4 ruling tossing the Federal defense of marriage act. Don't shoot the messenger.

Where do you see 5-4? I see 6-3.

Just thing of the bright side, if John Kerry wins the presidency and we lose the War on Terror, all the married gays will be beheaded under Sharia. :p Oh wait, that's not the bright side. What is the bright side???
