I feel bad for Arizonans. For too long, we haven't had a reasonable immigration policy. But that doesn't give them the right to write their own state immigration law. Anyone who has studied constitutional law will tell you the law is blatantly unconstitutional, which I thought was your whole big deal in the first place? You guys who complain about how Obama is trampling the constitution make me laugh. If you actually cared about the constitution, you would have been up in arms under Bush's presidency, and you should care about Arizona intentionally targeting brown people with their racist "Papers Please" law. When the Phoenix Suns have to lecture you on human rights, you know you're waaay off track.

Also, I haven't heard anything about the numbers. This perspective you're spouting, this is held by about 20% of Americans - the so called "5th column." Now that Tea Party candidates are getting destroyed in elections, they're learning just how marginal that perspective is. Oh, and the Republican party is a dying party because they alienate hispanics, blacks, gays, and college educated white men and women. Where is the future of the Republican Party? I don't know any young Republicans (they don't want to be associated with Pat Robertson-style anti-immigrant racism). Look at the tea parties - it is just a sea of elderly white people.

This election cycle is going to be pretty easy from a liberal perspective:

1. Go after banks for obviously immoral policies, such as shorting stocks it recommends to clients, and for packaging investments "doomed to fail," and selling them to clients.
2. Health Care reform success
3. Stabilized US economy during greatest financial disaster since the Great Depression and stimulated positive job growth
4. Greatest reduction of nuclear arms since first START treaty
5. Opposition to racist Arizona immigration law
6. Repeal Don't Ask Don't Tell

Good luck. I'll be the one voting with all the young people. Good luck in the red states, you're gonna need it.
