Frogs for Snakes

From the New York Times:

In a private meeting with White House officials this weekend, Democratic governors voiced deep anxiety about the Obama administration’s suit against Arizona’s new law, worrying that it could cost a vulnerable Democratic Party in the fall elections.

Absent from the Governor’s complaints,I notice, are both concerns about federal inaction on immigration reform and concerns about a state’s usurping of the federal government’s constitutional prerogitives. But then, it is an election year, and you can’t run next time as an incumbant if you don’t win this one. And there’s no future in being out of office.
