SACRAMENTO (CBS 5 / AP) ― Meg Whitman, the Republican front-runner in the California gubernatorial primary, said Tuesday that Arizona is taking the wrong approach to illegal immigration with its tough new law.

The former eBay chief executive said there are more effective approaches than requiring law enforcement officers to question people about their status if they suspect they are in the country illegally.

"I think there's just better ways to solve this problem," Whitman said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press.

"I'm a big believer in, 'What are the two or three things that will make the biggest difference here?"'

Pandering for the Mexican vote. Yeah, there is a better way to handle illegal immigration — the FEDS should have been doing their job a long time ago. Maybe Meg should be addressing the REAL problem. The malfeasance of the federal government.

It seems to me that the Arizona law is a litmus test for RINOs. Everyone who has stated they are against it should be certified as RINO. Voters beware.

As opposed to Moonbeam Redux? Hell, Brown would probably tear down the fence and pay the damned coyotes to bring more Democrat voters into the state.

Well, I'm not taking sides in the California race; I just don't know that much about the candidates, but I'm not a fan of this law, either. I think it gives the police way too much power to be able to stop me on the street and demand I prove I'm here legally.

Flame away, I know I'm in the minority on this one.

So many words, so little said. If she has a real solution, she would say it.

We have to force politicians to step up to the bar.

No flames here..

I hope that a bit of time will disprove that and actually have a positive effect. polls show close to 3/4ths of the state supports doing something the Feds refuse to do.. not just turning their heads and looking away.

I guess you have to live there to see and feel what they live day in and day out. an invasion.
