Anyone who actually thinks that the results of the Prop 8 vote reflects the will of the majority of Californians is nuts. And that's a WHOLE other issue from the issue of the constitutionality of the proposition.
I don't know whether Prop 8 is a violation of the federal Constitution. That's not my call. But it's a valid legal challenge to the thing, and stomping around saying "hurr hurr will of the people" is just absurd.
