California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger Sunday said "we will ... maybe undo" a measure passed by voters Tuesday stripping same-sex couples of the right to marry.
Proposition 8 amends the state constitution to declare that "only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California." It came in reaction to a state Supreme Court ruling that laws prohibiting same-sex marriage violated the state constitution.
In an appearance Sunday on CNN, Schwarzenegger said the state Supreme Court might overturn Proposition 8, the Los Angeles Times reported. He also said it is likely Proposition 8 will have no effect on the estimated 18,000 same-sex marriages already recorded in California.
"It's unfortunate, obviously, but it's not the end," Schwarzenegger told CNN. "I think that we will again maybe undo that, if the court is willing to do that, and then move forward from there and again lead in that area."

Ah-node: Homosexual backers "should never give up ... they should be on it and on it until they get it done" in the end.
This groping RINO needs to pay with this career. There needs to be a recall effort to force him from office.
It is time for another recall.
Who were the idiots in the RNC that backed this uber-liberal RINO?
words fail me. this man has totally betrayed conservatism and the Republican party in California.
Loved his Ohio speech for McCain last week ~ this is disappointing!
When can conservatives dump on the law of the land? Can we drill despite Barack.
So much for the ‘will of the people’!!!
I guess I don;t understand this... I thought this changed the California constitution. Wouldn’t it have to be undone through another amendment?
“They should be on it and on it until they get it done,” he said.”
Quote from Barney Frank?
It seems after the unions and leftists neutered him a few years ago, Ahnold has become a liberal-leftist eunuch and proud supporter of idiocy. Don’t forget he is also proposing a 1.5% Sales Tax increase in a the middle of economic diaster to make California Sales Tax rate = 10.25%, the highest in the country.
He has lost his mind!
yup undo what the people want.....and change the rules to run a third term (bloomberg)

States have “Living Constitutions” too. Arnold will fit in nicely in the Obama Nation.
YEAW, Ahnolt, The hell with democracy when it doesn't turn out the way you want.
Again- REVOLT CALIFORNIANS! LAW DOES NOT APPLY IN AMERICA ANYMORE! STOP PAYING YOUR TAXES!
Their aruguing in wasn’t an amendment but an addition to lanquage in the constitution, which they say needs a 2/3 from the Calif. legislature. But the Ca. Supreme Court has had the question of amendment vs. language before them in the past, and have always ruled to uphold the vote.
