Expect no effort from the Gub or the AG for delay or contest this decision.

Both are good little liberals.

He can't contest it; there is no higher court in the state than the state Supreme Court. Maybe there is some way he could appeal to a Federal court, but I doubt it; I just don't see how a Federal court would have standing on such a matter..

As far as I see, the only recourse is a state constitutional amendment. He could, of course, lobby and campaign for the amendment, and it's a big shame on him that he refuses. Nevertheless, I don't think that will be necessary for the amendment to pass.

The good news is that this throws gay marraige right back into the national spotlight, and that can only be bad news for the Democrats and good news for us.

I shudder at the thought of this being the last word. My goodness. San Francisco is an hour away from San Jose where I am. Time to turn the TV off for next few weeks and months. They are going to show these ceremonies day and night.
