If the states do not sign a treaty and simply make legislation then it isn't unconstitutional and the Supreme Court cannot strike it down.  I oppose this system, however, for a reason many will probably think to be immature or pathetic or whatever.

Let's face it, election night would never be exciting again if all we did was watch the pop vote counter change.  I mean come on, BORING.  The system I personally like was proposed in Colorado, but defeated in the 2004 vote.  It was that the state would allocate its electoral votes based on the pop vote perecentage in that state.  So like in Texas where Bush won 61% and Kerry 38%, Bush would have won 21 electors and Kerry 13 electors.  This is like the pop vote system being talked about, but more exciting.
