The left supported her decision on the expansion of Medicaid. The Medicare Tea Partiers with their mobility scooters, oxygen tanks, and red, white and blue garb were disappointed with the expansion. When will the left learn... an expansion of gubbermint handouts has to go thru the Republican base first.

I don't know that they are praising Brewer but she is certainly getting their praise for her action on the veto. And it is not just from the left. There is a giant sense of relief in the state tonight, though it was pretty much a foregone conclusion it would end this way.

Let's be real here, Brewer vetoed the bill because it literally would have decimated her state economically. She's still one of the worst governors in the country.

While I think the misinformation and drama was overblown,I can't blame her.

This was about the economy. Az did not need to lose conventions; business was enraged at them for even considering this bill.

Arizona remains the ONLY state in the US where an MLK holiday was established by a vote of the people.

Old people spend a lot of money in Arizona. They don't need conventions. That is not my point though...........it's all about the midterms and how it is setting up. All about gay this or that............not about what is really going on.
