The blog “Arizona Immigration Policy and its Effects on the Race for Texas Governor” written by Thomas on Tuesday May 4,2010 is an interesting blog that discusses how policies of neighboring states could possibly effect the race for Texas Governor. I feel that this is a well written blog where the author uses several embedded links and direct quotes to support his opinions. The blog seems well researched and offers a variety of views from different sources. Thomas sticks to the point and details with examples how Arizona policies might affect the Texas election.
I found the article interesting because it highlights how with the passage of AZ SB 1070 Governor Perry is going to have to provide a stance on an issue that he has been avoiding for some time. It also brings to light how divided we are in Texas and what our election might be based this year. Typically either you are for or against abortion, health-care, etc… This year it will be you are either for or against strict immigration laws. It is unfortunate that people tend to focus and few main topics to decide who to vote for and not a body of work
Maybe stories of coyote shooting will distract voters from the real issues!
