The latest Rasmussen survey (Nov. 2009) has the legalization measure ahead in CA, with 49% in favor and 38% opposed. Surveys done in May, July, and November 2009 show that support has risen from 45% to 47% to 49%, while opposition has declined from 46% to 42% to 38%. That's a 12 point shift in 6 months.

Suppose CA votes to legalize. Do you support the State's prerogative under the Tenth Amendment to do so without fedgov interference? Or, should fedgov shut it down under authority of the Commerce Clause?

I love that trend! I hope it continues 'til November.

California does have the right to legalize marijuana unless an Constitutional amendment is passed banning marijuana use.

That doesn't mean it is a good idea. Only state with as many liberal idiots in it as California would do such a thing.
