flstf,
While you are correct that it would have been legal for them to secede, they did not seek that act in a legal manner. It may be legal for me to withdraw money from my account, but not to break into the vault of the bank and take it by force just because they won't process the withdrawl on a Sunday.
The breakup won't happen soon, or at least while the important interests of the states are best served by remaining in the Union, which is certainly the case today.
