I agree with you. This is entirely a state matter.

Unfortunately, someone (didn't catch who it was) has gone to Federal Court and obtained an injunction against the Nevada Supreme Court. I heard this on Rush with Roger Hedgecock about an hour ago.

That was my Assemblywoman Sharon Angle. She's a family friend and a true conservative (and a wonderful woman). A friend of mine that knows Sharon told me about the lawsuit last Saturday and said that she was looking for names to attach to the suit (it was a class action lawsuit). My family tried to reach her Sunday so we could be named on the suit, but she was out and the suit came out on Monday.

Sharon has been hitting the local talk radio circuit, too. She's really stepped up to the plate on this whole debacle (as well as Lynn Hetrick and a few others) and we're very proud of her. True leadership is hard to find in government these days, and it's crisis' like these that separate the men and women from the children. I have no doubt that Sharon's political star will shine brightly after we're through this.

There was another thread about this a few days ago (I'm about to head out the door and can't dig it up myself, but a keyword or headline search should pull it up) in which a lawyer tracked down the relevant court filings in this case, which showed the federal courts very much do have the responsibility of stepping in when the state courts start engaging in massive violations of the most basic rights of the state's citizens ... and have plenty of times throughout American history.
