State governments could do this without resorting to secession. They should simply refuse to enforce unconstitutional laws.
You are right, they COULD and SHOULD. Unfortunately a lot of State politicians have higher Federal aspirations, so they need to prove their "bonafides" at State level.
That is why we need to get back to electing Citizen Legislatures (temporary service) both State and Federal and not the "professional" politicians we have now.

Well, if those state politicians are so corrupt, how do you expect to get enough of them to vote for secession?
On the other hand, if you can elect enough statesman (as opposed to politicians), then why leave the Union anyway? Why not just stand up to Obama?
