As mentioned in my piece this morning, Mitt Romney's legal team is asking the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court to make the legislature act on a voter-initiated amendment to end same-sex marriage in the commonwealth. I'll be very surprised if this works. Romney and company are in effect saying to justices, "Please force the state legislature to take a step toward reversing you."

Of course, in Massachusetts constitutional jurisprudence, anything can happen.
