Complete devotion to a cause and billions to spend on litigation and lobbying.

They picked their litigation states (MA and IA) and after many wins in federal court, turned to legislation in a few states (NY and MN).

Molly Ball had a story on it in The Atlantic.

Every time I see Ted Olson on TV I am thinking his fee in the SSM case was $5m. At least.
