I don't think the debate will hurt Governer Brewer at all. I don't suspect that people in Arizona are all that interested in debate anyway. I am thinking that her "anti-immigration" message came through loud and clear despite her gaffes. She probably expresses the fears of many of the voters in her state. Many other successful politicians also have played on fear to further their political agenda. Jesse Helms, George Wallace and some fellow from Austria come to mind.

September 08 2010 at 6:05 PM Report abuse Permalink +3 rate up rate down Replyso she had a little bad moment. it is not going t hurt her. it does show that she is human and not a political robot. Any govenor with an ounce of honesty would come out and do what she has done for Arizona and try to protect her state and the employees within it. The coward of a Deputy who sued the state and was told he did not have standing should have been given the choice of resigning or offering a public apology to the state. We have Govenors from New Mexico and California who recognize they have a porous border and need help but refuse to act responsibly to theor legal voters. MAy she win the war.

September 08 2010 at 4:50 PM Report abuse Permalink -18 rate up rate down Reply......the tea baggers also hate that the justice dpt brought suit against a state for protecting themselves from invaders. They also hate the fact that the White House filed a complaint with the United Nations Commission of Human Rights of which Libya and Cuba will judge Arizona. The fact that the White House couldn't handle an internal problem and wait for a Supreme court decision and turned it over to an international body will be on their mind come election day.

Besides she does the "right" thing and she does it well. There are some so called National Politicians who could learn from Governor Brewer as to how to be a good leader. You hear that Mr O!

I unders there is only one jail (1st degree felons) in Arizona that is not a private profit making corporation. Please tell us who the stockholders are, who are the Board Members, etc. Only then, can you understand the politics of it.

And she completely ignores questions from the press about the ties between herself, her campaign staff and others in the state legislature to CCA, the private prison system that stands to make BILLIONS from rounding up "people not like us" in the immigration scam known as SB 1070. Anyone not white can be asked for proof of their citizenship (like any U.S. citizen carries around their birth certificate or passport everywhere they go), and if they can't produce it, they are thrown in jail until they can. It's disgusting how the old white people in this moronic backwards state are letting their bigotry and hatred flow like the sand in a windstorm to put this state back into the 1950s. Disgusting.
