When Napolitano was US Atty for Arizona during Clinton years, she had Arpaio nailed on federal civil rights violations. Instead of nailing him, they cut a deal whereby she sealed the investigation/findings and Arpaio made a worthless promise to clean up his act.

Fast-forward a few years: Democrat Napolitano runs for governor and Republican Arpaio endorses her.

That's true, but also recall that Arpaio had made it clear that he wanted to run for governor and he was peeved when he wasn't given the nod.
