Actually, I think Texas declared it “on” yesterday. The combination of defunding Planned Parenthood (and so getting the Feds to sue them) and deciding to directly challenge the DoJ’s authority in re voter identification.
If most of the states start misbehaving, there is not a whole lot the Federal Government can do. The problem is that the states allowed themselves to be made dependents of the Federal Government via monetary contributions.
In other words, they are bought and paid for, for the most part.
Things are not going well at Holder’s DOJ. They have decided to rush headfirst into an issue that enjoys overwhelming public support, even among Democrats and blacks. Greg Abbott has had enough. And now, so has a federal court.
With this amended complaint, one of two outcomes are likely: Voter ID is implemented for the November election in Texas, or, courts will strike down Section 5. Either way, Holder will have presided over an ill-managed dismantling of Section 5, or, a failed attack on voter integrity.

But, still, it’s nice to have a multi-front war.

Rob, I wondered about that. We had to show ID to vote this last time. Holder must be unaware that Oklahoma has voter ID rules in effect.
Or the WH just hates Texas.
Here’s hoping Anthony Kennedy makes this all go away.
