I still think we're going to get a 6-3 decision striking down all statewide SSM bans; Roberts joins to the liberals to be on the "right side" of history. 

Based on Roberts' comments, the best hope for a 6-3 would be on pure sex discrimination grounds. This would also have the effect of isolated SSM from potential future gay rights cases and would probably avoid the religious tax exemptions issue entirely.
