Support for gay marriage will be widespread in the Republican party by 2016.

They can read polls.

This is quickly dying as an issue.

Maybe by 2020.  At best the GOP might nominate someone who hasn't been strongly outspoken against SSM in 2016.

Well if RINO Sandoval won't defend his law, I hope the courts will allow someone to do so,. Like, the thousands of Nevadans who made the law to begin with, they might deserve a little bit of representation.
An elected official needs to offer more than mere slavishness to the whims of the electorate, even assuming they still feel as they did a decade ago.  It's clear that the courts are going to act to end the various state bans on SSM.  Trying to defend the indefensible is a waste of time and money which they owe it to the voters to spend where it will make a difference.
