We cats respectfully disagree that a SCOTUS ruling in favor of marriage equality would benefit the Republican Party. Believe us, we have spent enough time reading the contemptuous comments over at Free Republic to know that the gay-haters will not go quietly.
Not only will they immediately gin up a Constitutional amendment campaign, but they'll insist on a pro-amendment plank in the 2016 GOP party platform. And what will the Republicans do about speakers at the convention? It won't be pretty (but for us, lots of fun).
Still, we must remember this: Whatever the Supreme Court decides come June, it will be up to the Democrats to keep the Republicans' feet to the fire on gay rights. We cats will be doing our part — as soon as we can figure out this cheesehead thing.
