I'm deeply troubled by the Prop 8 results. Not merely because of the terrible impact on California's citizens, but how it may re-energize attempts to stamp out same-sex marriage here and in Connecticut. Passing Prop 8 in California of all places must be enormously heady for them. I would not be surprised at all if I learned that they were inspired to begin backing new efforts to amend Massachusetts' constitution.
Thank god our constitution can't be amended by snapping your fingers like it can in California, but that would be a long, expensive and bloody fight... again.
