Wright Allen on Thursday issued a stay of her order while it is appealed, meaning that gay couples in Virginia still won’t be able to marry until the case is ultimately resolved. An appeal will be filed to the 4th District Court of Appeals, which could uphold the ban or side with Wright Allen. (AP Photo/The Virginian-Pilot, Bill Tiernan)

EDITORIAL: Colorado’s lesson for Virginia

In this photo taken Tuesday, Oct. 15, 2013, Republican gubernatorial candidate, Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli, right, and running mates Lt. Gov candidate, E.W. Jackson, center, and Attorney General candidate State Sen. Mark Obenshain, listen to speakers during a press conference at the Capitol in Richmond, Va., where they received the endorsement of the Fraternal Order of Police of Virginia. Cuccinelli is treating his bid for governor as a referendum on all the things he opposes. And there are plenty of them, like the Democrats&#8217; health care law, the EPA which he nicknames the &#8220;Employment Prevention Agency&#8221;, those who would limit gun rights, and last but not least, his Democratic opponent, Terry McAuliffe.
