You can't even tell me who's going to be in next year's Super Bowl, or who will be president in 2016. Not sure why anyone should believe what you think about how the public will vote on gay marriage in 10-20 years.

But if that helps you sleep at night, more power to you. I deal in reality, and the reality is that 30+ states have restricted it in some form or other, and it continues to fail in the most liberal of states around the country. Barring some truly heinous act of judicial activism at the high court, that is a high bar to reach, even for a so-called tidal wave.
