That thorough ruling in the Calif. gay marriage case has had a beneficial side effect even before it gets in front of the 9th Circuit Court. Alas, it isn't that gays can marry yet. The effect is that various GOP leaders and pundits are dropping their opposition to gay marriage. Some are actually embracing our cause, others are quietly proclaiming it a non-issue.
The recent additions to the list of such leaders includes Ann Coulter (who will speak at a conference of conservative gays), and TV loudmouth Glenn Beck. Of course, True Believers are into conniptions over such betrayals. Alas, it's too soon to proclaim Game Over -- if the GOP takes the House in November there are predictions one of their first actions will be to pass a federal marriage amendment -- which the Senate will ignore.
