Congressional aides say New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer has decided to abandon his plan to issue driver's licenses to illegal immigrants.
Officials familiar with the decision tell The Associated Press that Spitzer will meet Wednesday morning with New York's congressional delegation. Many of them have openly opposed the program and debate over the issue has spilled over into the presidential campaign of Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.
The aides, who spoke on condition of anonymity because no formal announcement has been made, say that after the meeting, Spitzer will say he is shelving the plan and that immigration is a federal issue to be handled by Washington.
Hallelujah, thanks
This doesn’t get Hillary off the hook for her wishy-washy position but it does take the topic off the table.
I guess it’s a win for her.
Anyone notice that Schumee hasn't been boot licking lately?? Or did he find out that Spitzer was gonna get what he was promised?
So is H! still for the plan or not?
Hi Ms Maine.
I saw this in the Wash Compost today. Seems to be straight up and worth the read. Not terribly friendly to Hirrary or any on them really. The column is titled Fact Checker.

Only because it was hurting Hitler.y.
“The National Dems got to him. His plan became a liability too fast.”
Had to get Elliot back to the game plan:
Democrats acting as though they are sane, reasonable and even human
until the Wed after the voting in Nov. 2008.
Fallout from the last DNC debate.
Hilarious....PIAPS...musta HIT THE ROOF...they’d scare anyone....out of his UN-AMERICAN PLANS...
GREAT!! Now Shrillery needs to be forced to comment on the now abandoned policy that she does support, doesn’t support, does support.....?? Now that Spitzer has been forced to FLIP-FLOP it is an even better chance to put the Hildebeast on the spot again.
His numbers continue to plummet.
Elliot can kiss any presidential aspirations goodbye.
“The aides, who spoke on condition of anonymity because”
they didn’t want to be hung by their thumbs and beat like pinatas.

What did he try to do to the The Fair? You pretty much have to work to mess with formula that gets a million people a year. I was out of town in early September.
Dumbass reporting maybe?
That’s just what he says. Don’t think that’s what he’s going to do. He’ll be back.
The heroes for this victory deserve credit and that’s Lou Dobbs, Jim Tedisco, Frank Merola and all the County clerks, and the NYS Senate. There is a GOP in NY after all. :)
"Under the Edwards plan, as many as 10,000 troops could be stationed in Kuwait, available for "targeted" missions,...
so says "General" John
Well, at least they wouldn't be in Okinawa, where Murtha suggested...
Yup he will, no doubt about it and so will we. That is if troopergate doesn't get him first...
