Education and Credentials? I mean, random anon internet poster proclaims Law Degree holding AGs ignorant of the law, I'm kinda curious as to what you do to make such sweeping proclamations? Eh?

So six other AGs are ignorant of the law? That's not a good sign. None of these states have standing in this case. If you think this case will actually be argued in front of the Supreme Court while the Pennsylvania case (where the plaintiff actually had standing) was thrown out you're delusional.
Kemp said while speaking at the Biennial Institute for Georgia Legislators that legislators appointing their own electors was “not an option.”
“You all will be taking an oath to uphold the laws and constitution of our state and now, more than ever, it is important to remember that thousands of brave men and women have paid the ultimate sacrifice for those laws, that constitution and all that they protect,” Kemp said, according to USA Today.
“I’m confident that each of you will live up to the words and greater calling regardless of political consequences. That’s what I’ve been doing,” he added.

Actually, they do have a valid case constitutionally, IF they file on the proper grounds......
Unfortunately, this case may notl be heard because they didn't. We'll see.

For the show me the docket crowd. It’s there to be considered. Seven other states (maybe more) have joined Texas so really hard to ignore this one.

Your link shows only Texas at this time.
For decades, Republicans have railed against frivolous lawsuits that clog the courts with specious claims, sometimes simply to grab attention or make a political point.
Now, in the increasingly ridiculous tenure of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, such suits are apparently part of the toolkit.
By Paxton’s strange accounting, states should be able to intervene in their counterparts’ election procedures. It’s a silly argument that the court should reject completely.
And it abruptly cuts against the very states’ rights arguments Texas has made for decades about election laws. If Paxton were to prevail, imagine the attorney general of California licking his chops at the chance to go after Texas’ voter ID requirements.
