The reason State Farm and Allstate want the case tried in Federal court rather than at the State Level is because the State court might be inclined to rule based on political expediency rather than point of law. (State officials ruling in favor of their political interests?,no that can't happen in Mississippi!! or anywhere else for that matter.) While I acknowledge and sympathize with the pain and suffering of the Katrina victims, everyone's efforts (including AG Hood) should be concentrated on Federal and State relief...including eliminating any logjams in the "flood" of disaster recovery resources promised but not yet delivered upon.
