51% is a pure and total lie. This must be another DAILYKOS BS poll.
Anyone who isn’t progressive/illegal Latino or radical progressive I KNOW is for SB 1070. EVERYONE!
I’d say this number is more like 70% in real life.
This is more of the main stream media trying to push progressive communism on the USA and lying to the public.
“I’d say this number is more like 70% in real life.”
mickrussom, living room pollster. Hahahaha!!!
And let’s add, according to a poll, 80% of those who support SB1070 also support a comprehensive immigration reform law which includes a path to citizenship. It’s an important addition. It means people are fed up with inaction and will take any action over nothing at all. It doesn’t mean people want to round ‘em up and ship ‘em home.
Here’s something I wrote about it on Blog for Arizona (El Blog)

Nope. Vast amount of online research, an average of various polls I have seen. Realclearpolitics is a good nexus for polling data. You can laugh all you want Roberto, but middle America is sick of the drugs, sick of crime and sick of paying all the bills while you spit on us. We are done. And if you think it 49/51%, well, unless you are good at rigging polls wait until November.
The crucial thing we should consider while fighting against illegal immigration is the illegal labor. People pass the border illegally because they are guaranteed to get a job here!!! So first of all entrepreneurs should stop taking illegal employees, using cheap labor and increasing their profits. And the situation will change drastically!!! What will illegals come for if they know that there is no job here for them!

@TUCSONSAM
Yeah, its all Bush’s fault, 500 days in, it still is. Really, ? Really, thats all you got.
Obama’s average spending is 3 times per day than Bush. That’s about 3 trillion in 500 days. And you communist rat vermin progressives were all over bush on the spending.
14th Amendment is EQUAL PROTECTION OF LAWS, and various other things. You know nothing of the Constitution.
So Tucson sam, die of cancer and youll get a nice Obamacare hospital bed and no treatment and you can die in the commie state hospital next to a fence hopper that drained our nation and our schools and our hopitals.
Tucson sam, communist rat vermin progressive traitor to both God, the constitution and Country.
@MICKROSSON
YOU ARE A TROOL.
@TUCSONSAM
Tucson Sam. Let me correct you since you seem quasi-literate. I believe you mean troll not TROOL.
You also managed to spell the nickname wrong despite the reply function here automatically populating the reply-to header.
As usual from the progressive left the ad-hominem is the primary tool used in debate simply because facts are not able to be used to support any of the bogus balderdash progressives eructate. The fact is the progressives in office are accelerating the bankrupting of America with a Cloward Piven strategy. Form the ashes of the state they are attempting to fail they believe they will construct a progressive Statist authoritarian regime that serves the oligarchical collectivist masters.
The identity politics which you are interested in is a distraction. That is how ignorant and ill informed you (Tucson Sam) are. The oligarchs in charge bait you with side of the street identity politics and you lap it up, and you want to spend more on entitlements when the country is well over 20 trillion in the hole, and your glorious progressive master triples average daily spending (so far) compared to Bush.
When your allies have robbed us of freedom, liberty and our constitution you will have to live with yourself, and when the end comes, you will be judged harshly for disobeying God, disobeying natural laws and subverting our enumerated rights.
