What I do think is significant is that there was no recorded dissent from the grant of a stay in this case.

Do tell? Is it common to see such dissents or is it that you expected ideological lines to be drawn this early with respect to a stay request for same-sex marriage?

Dissents from grants or denials of stays are not common, but they are certainly not unheard of. The only lesson I draw from this is that the Court's left wing is probably not going to make this a super-divisive case (though I could be wrong about that, of course).
