Comments on ISC decision on marriage today?

Since they based their decision on the constitution I don't see how they could have ruled otherwise.
Any chance a constitutional amendment may get introduced this session? I thought I had heard that Murphy was not in favor of doing that.
BTW the amendment process for those who don't know.
From the DMR:

=====================================================
Q. What is the process for an amendment to the Iowa Constitution?

A. Amendments need to be approved by simple majorities in both the House and Senate in two consecutive general assemblies, then must be approved by a simple majority of voters in the next general election. Each general assembly lasts for two years. This year is the second year of the current general assembly. That means if an amendment is approved this year and in the 2009 or 2010 legislative session, it can be on the general election ballot in November 2010. If lawmakers wait until 2009 to start the amendment process, the earliest that a proposed amendment could reach voters is November 2012.
