You know I don't think it will. I haven't seen any information about that being the case in Washington or Colorado.
One popular example is the NFL where they contend that because they engage in interstate commerce and it's still illegal at the federal level, they will continue to enforce their ban on its use.
A lot of banks were afraid to even do business with sellers in states where it's legal for fear of fines or sanctions from government agencies.
Edit - Obama directed the justice department to not prosecute entities in states where it's legal. But it's totally possible a republican president may take the opposite approach.
