Amnesty an issue in AZ GOP primary

Senator McCain (R-Arizona)J.D. Hayworth (Arizona)The head of an immigration enforcement PAC believes Arizona Senator John McCain will be defeated in the GOP primary if he supports a Senate amnesty proposal.
When J.D. Hayworth was in the U.S. House, he made a name for himself as an unwavering opponent of illegal immigration, but he was defeated for re-election in 2006. Now presenting himself as "the consistent conservative," he is trying to end the 24-year career of fellow Republican John McCain by challenging him in the August GOP Senate primary.
William Gheen, president of Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) -- who has been a firm critic of McCain, particularly on the issue of illegal immigration -- thinks Hayworth has a great shot at beating McCain.
William Gheen (ALIPAC)"Right now I believe J.D. Hayworth is very likely to defeat John McCain in the primary," the ALIPAC president comments. "If John McCain co-signs the amnesty bill -- along with Lindsey Graham and Senator Schumer, Democrat from New York -- as he has promised to do, then J.D. Hayworth will certainly beat John McCain. He will move from likely to certain, and McCain's people know this. They're scared to death of J.D. Hayworth. That's why they've been abusing him and attacking him."
Gheen believes that even if McCain does not sign on to the Senate amnesty bill, Hayworth is still likely to defeat him in the primary, so he says the McCain campaign is hesitant to have him endorse the bill right now.
