I would hope that the good people of Idaho would have better sense than to elect a Hispanic immigration lawyer to office at a time when the United States is virtually being invaded by Mexico.

I think some of us in Idaho may have a hard time voting for Ward because he seems to be a bit of a carpet bagger. Labrador at least fought against a whole slate of new taxes the state tried to pass last year. I'll admit I am unfamiliar with his views regarding immigration but I do know he is a fiscal conservative and fought hard to prevent raising taxes on us here in Idaho.

What if the “Hispanic immigration lawyer” was opposed to amnesty and has had a solidly conservative voting record on issue after issue in the Idaho legislature?

And what if his primary opponent had proven to be an incompetent candidate, kept plagiarizing stuff and would be a far riskier choice in the general election against the Democrat incumbent?

Raul Labrador is the conservative choice.
