8. The governor's objection was just a flimsy excuse to get a revote
It was a bullshit reason -- nobody has been threatened with lawsuits for refusing to take part in same-sex weddings.

It's just that the NH legislature is a clusterfuck assembly -- 400 freaking people -- that it's not hard to browbeat a few of them to change their votes.

As soon as I saw the story that the governor would sign it if the legislature made a small change, I knew this was going to happen. This was the whole reason he did it.
