Of course marriage is the big problem because marriage is all about societies respect for couples.

DOMA being abolished is going to be a horrible problem given the repub/tea party congress

But ENDA will IMHO get a lot of support from people that wont buy into marriage.

this is prob where the next advance can be made. HOw eg can the repubs who want everyone to work for a living etc, dare to refuse to protect gays from employment discrimination.?

Its not going to be easy but the margin of victory may be there. And in so many independents minds, who complain about people living off the dole, how will they dare to oppose encouraging employment opportunites for gays.
