Just like the original boycott threat. I thought it was a well-played response.

I agree boycotts are political as well.

The difference, IMO, is the boycott has the force of action behind it and voiding a valid intergovernmental contract (if that is the case) does not which would make it an empty threat.

add:
It is even less than an empty threat....just some dude in AZ (running for reelection to the AZ Commission) blowing hot air.

Given that Southern California Edison, the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and other California utilities have an ownership stake in major power plants in Arizona.
