We could have lots of secession talk outside of TX as well.

I believe that several states have active movements...Vermont's movement may be larger than Texas....

The fact is, many that never gave a thought to secession, are now actively engaged....

Vermont update... I may not agree with all of this person's views but I agree with his desire to be a free man.

Here’s how it will be with Vermont: The leaders of its secessionist movement, the Second Vermont Republic, want to feed, shelter, clothe, and fuel a free republic broken from the empire. This doesn’t mean the little country will sink into Albanian isolation, its citizens ceasing to trade with China or refusing to watch the rot beamed on DirecTV satellites. It will continue to be a tourist destination, its slopes welcoming New Yorkers and Quebecois equally. But the state’s secesh want to keep their tax dollars at home and put them toward localized food economies (calling it “food sovereignty”), energy supplies based on wind and water, and credit lines out of community lenders freed from the distant tyrannical rate controls of central banks.

Actually, New England was very "states' rights" during the Jefferson administration (the Essex Junto) and the War of 1812 ("blue light" Federalists, the Hartford Convention).

Also many northern states invoked states' rights to combat the fugitive slave law.

Actually, whether one advocates federal or local supremacy seems to depend on whether one holds federal power.
