Of course if the Supreme Court comes down and says that there is no right at all to have a publically recognized homosexual relationship, it could make the bans on gay marriage "settled law" the same way how abortion, marijuana, and in part health care are today, where a plurality or majority may disagree with the law but a large majority of the population and virtually every mainstream politician don't want to touch directly with a ten foot pole because they fear that it would cause major disruptions. 

or it could have a "Dred Scott" effect where it casts the court into disrepute and only increases the resolve of equality supporters.
