Walker going all in
by digby
Looks like Walker’s going to fight Huckabee and Santorum for that religious right vote with everything he has:
SCOTT WALKER calls for “an amendment to the U.S. Constitution to reaffirm the ability of the states to continue to define marriage.”

States’ rights. Again. Smell the freedom.
Update: They all have different ideas about where to go from here, from reluctantly abiding by the ruling to civil disobedience, but they aren’t giving up on their retrograde views:
Bush: “I believe in traditional marriage.”
Walker: “The only alternative left is to support an amendment to the U.S. Constitution to reaffirm the ability of the states to continue to define marriage.”
Rubio: “I believe that marriage…should be between one man and one woman.”
Perry: “I’m a firm believer in traditional marriage… I fundamentally disagree with the court rewriting the law and assaulting the 10th Amendment.”
Jindal: “Marriage between a man and a woman was established by God, and no earthly court can alter that.”
Fiorina: “I do not agree that the Court can or should redefine marriage.”
Huckabee: “The only outcome worse than this flawed, failed decision would be for the President and Congress…to surrender in the face of this out-of-control act of unconstitutional, judicial tyranny.”
