i think the atomized and yet generally hostile approach is not working. sending the mormons postcards calling them bigots will never pay off. what will pay off is investigating them.
and, it seems to me, 30 years wasting time on litigation about marriage when the precedent is that a constitutional amendment will obviate it, state by state, is not a realpolitik solution. how's it workin' for ya?
ie., marshall chose his issue rather than letting the single-issue voter turnout strategy of the right wing chose the issue. gay marriage may not be your winning civil rights issue. certainly it is not being prosecuted in a way that will win. (see lambda link.)
