Here is a good article on the subject: http://writ.news.findlaw.com/dorf/20041124.html

Bottom line: Does the Constitution Permit States to Secede? With Permission, Perhaps; Unilaterally, No

BTW IMO if any states were allowed to secede it would mean the end of our country. If you think it is bad now, it could be far worse after secession.
