It really depends on the type of attack.  If they're just flodding as
part of a DDOS attack then spoofing is viable, but for something like
a SQL injection attack the IP can't be spoofed per se.  In those cases
the biggest problem, in my opinion, is that it is ridiculously easy to
reroute (think TOR) and come from a different, unrelated IP in a
matter of seconds.
