KAET-TV and the ASU journalism school are once again taking the pulse of Arizona.

The latest Cronkite-Eight Poll shows that 51 percent of the registered voters surveyed support a proposed law labeling illegal immigrants who break any laws as domestic terrorists.

Also noted: Sen. John McCain leads the presidential race in Arizona, if not nationally; Hillary has a slight lead over Obama; and 54 percent think a bill to prevent teachers from speaking about political topics in class is brain vomit.

... from the journalism/treason proposal blogged about here yesterday, according to Beltway publication The Hill.

Remember: Anytime you hear someone refer to McCain as a moderate, or anything other than a flip-flopping sellout anti-gay politician, you must take action.
