...it probably wouldn't pass. However, they don't play by the rules. I'm sure they would go to great lengths to get 2/3 of the states to call on Congress to convene a Constitutional Convention.
Any proposed Amendments that would come out of such a Convention worry me. You can be pretty sure that an Amendment banning gay marriage will not be the only Amendment coming from such a Convention.
The Repugs play for keeps so I'm also sure they will do anything to get the required ratifications by 3/4 of the states or state legislatures.
