The funny thing is that the federal government is not going to abolish legal marriage any time in the near future. So it would have to be something done by the states. This would then lead likely to the federal government setting up a federal marriage license in order to recognize legal spouses as such (sort of like they did/proposed for the married same sex couples in the military). This then basically takes marriage away from the states, at least to a degree, putting more power in federal hands.
