I meant what I said: I'm not believing any of the predictions from so-called experts as to how the Supreme Court will rule on the Gay Marriage issues brought before it. Actually, there are so many different forecasts out there that one of 'em must be right. But I'm not getting my hopes up or down until the verdict comes down. Come to think of it, back when the Obamacare ruling came down, a lot of the pundits were wrong about it for about the first five minutes they actually had it in hand.
I did read the arguments and I'll say what I said about the courtroom arguments that got California's Proposition 8 overturned: If I were a fierce opponent of Gay Marriage, I'd suspect someone had paid the guy representing my side to throw the case. Then again, I'd also figure that going in, we had four Supreme Court justices locked up versus four we'd never get…and that the swing guy probably already knew where he wanted to go and was just figuring how to get there. Remember the good ol' days when we could at least pretend that members of the Supreme Court were open-minded?
