In the past 72 hours UTAH of all places..the reddest of the red states..has legalized gay marriage. I suspect there will be some serious opposition to the ruling but if it is upheld it will be a major stepping stone...
...so in a two month span we have Hawaii, Illinois, New Mexico and UTAH!
Anyone care to speculate the next four?
I think maybe Virginia, Colorado. Oregon and Nevada.

Dafuq. Utah? That's one of the last states I expected to hear that from. I mean... really? Utah has always been one of the worst states about that.
As for your prediction, I hope you're right about Oregon. I plan to move back there soon. It's definitely much more likely than Utah.

I thought I was going the most homophobic...I know Alabama is very 'traditional' or bible beltish?

I was thinking with all the mormons there Utah with be along the lines of the Deep South in this...
got a nice surprise there..
ehhhh.....let me see...Oregon, Nevada, (just to have all the West in pretty pro-LGBT stance)....Wisconsin...maybe, maybe....and I don't know about the last one....I think Colorado was somewhat of a grey area in this, but I'm not sure..
all the above in no particular order
and I would throw in Pennsylvania, but that's just wishfull thinking into seeing all of that NorthEast in pretty pro-LGBT stance too.....the continuity would look nice in a colored map
I can say the South will be the hardest, obviously..
