Republicans are in dire need of a Supreme Court bailout on marriage. They need the Court to resolve this conflict for them, because doing it any other way will be the harder road to travel. After years of relying on marriage as a hot-button issue to drive voters to the polls, Republicans are now either running from the issue altogether, or coming out in support of same-sex marriage.
As I've said before, "When your horse is dead, dismount. And never let anyone see you check for a heartbeat."
This issue is on its deathbed. The best most Republicans can hope for is for the conflict to die in a courtroom just the way the conflict over interracial marriage did in 1967.
