Because the state officials are GOP and are fighting to squelch all the lawsuits in the states themselves. For example, Holder has told Rick Scott to quit; some elections officials have; but he is the Governor and has the GOP legislature and officials behind him. Now the GOP is trying to change the way the FL SC is elected because it has ruled in favor of the Democrats, so he can silence that too. The problem is media induced apathy and disdain for the Democrats, which is not deserved. Obama cannot rule this country by decree, change is from the ground up. Everyone has to go at the smallest things locally to change this stuff which means facing a boatload of brainwashed citizenry. Complaining about the Democrats being ineffective is self-defeating and exactly what the GOP media is promoting to us. If we buy it as individuals, and refuse to face the people who are GOP, they win. It's up to us, but if we don't want to do it, we might as well see where we're going to fit into their social system and surrender.
