Jan Brewer supports the Senate immigration bill. Who slipped her the sanity pill?

http://abcnews.go.com/ABC_Univision/Politics/arizona-gov-jan-brewer-backs-senate-immigration-bill/story?id=19473676

Brewer appeared so pleased with the additional border security measures that she indicated that she is open to a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants.

"We need the workers, we need a lot of those people in Arizona," she said. "But we have to be satisfied that it's going to occur. And the first step is those resources on the border."

The shift actually puts Brewer to the left of some House Republicans, and may be a sign that the Senate immigration bill could have more traction in that body than expected.

saw Israel's and they get to hire legions of armed agent to patrol that wall. This is bigotry plus gravy for Arizona. What's for her not to like? Moderate and conservative Democrats worked hard to remove the parts Republicans would not like and add parts they love, it is crafted to please them.
DiFi and Durbin and Schumer promised this bill would fly though the Senate if they were allowed to remove all that gay stuff. Now it is 'might have more traction'. Hope it was worth it, centrists.
