Candidates reaching out to the right in immigration debate


WASHINGTON A primary victory by a conservative get-tough-on-immigration candidate for an Arizona House seat is pushing the statewide debate over immigration farther to the right.

Experts and advocates say Randy Graf's victory in the primary indicates the enormous strength of Republicans who are concerned about border security.

A Rutgers University political scientist says the message was heard loud and clear throughout the state of Arizona.

Graf is a former state legislator and golf pro who has long been a vocal proponent for tough border enforcement and restrictions for illegal immigrants.

He beat four others in the G-O-P primary for a U-S House seat in southeastern Arizona.

I'm so sick of this crap. This is not a right wing issue. This is an American issue. This is just another rotten ploy to divide this nation that's already divided.
