I hope this move backfires in the sense that it accelerates the inevitable - that California voters will change course and give gay couples treatment equal to heterosexual couples. I suspect that there may be at least a couple of percent of people who felt ambiguously enough before they voted for Prop 8 that the injustice of this move will tip them the other way (although activities by gay activists may play an equal or greater role in them changing their minds).
And I hope the inevitable happens much sooner rather than later for the sake of the loving gay couples who just want what everyone else can have.
