Not a chance. Seceding from the US is right out. The last time anyone tried to do that, it did not go so well for them.
Even if we consider the somewhat simpler (or at least marginally less impossible) problem of seceding from California while remaining part of the Union, they'd to get California's permission first. I strongly doubt that California would ever be convinced to give up such a large portion of its tax base.

Silicon Valley is a powerhouse that some feel is being held back by the east coast bureaucracy and I think that's what this is about. I think you've hit another point on the head, Silicon Valley is going to take California with it. And Washington, Oregon, and Colorado.
