The argument that the Interstate Commerce Clause doesn't apply to commerce wholly within a state has already failed in other court cases. I didn't think modern nullification laws have worked either. With marijuana it is still illegal under Federal law and can be prosecuted within the states that passed laws legalizing it. The second Bush administration did this when states started legalizing medical marijuana laws. States can pass laws for the state but cannot do trump Federal laws. However, some of the things mentioned here seem to get into a gray area because they are not nullifying Federal laws but administrative decisions.
