The knifes are starting to come out to meet John McCain. McCain has had a relatively easy run, facing few questions about his record or his character. Immigration, not so fast…the Keating 5, McCain was up to his neck in that and America picked up the bill, having to bail out the Savings and Loan industry. And one last thing, how does a man who never had a real job, who has only served in Washington as a Congressman and a Senator become a millionaire?

In 2004, the voters of Arizona, by 56 percent to 44 percent, enacted Proposition 200, requiring proof of citizenship before an individual can vote or receive state benefits. Forty-six percent of Hispanics voted for Prop. 200, giving the lie to those who say Hispanics support the illegal invasion of their country.

More than 190, 000 Arizonans petitioned to put Prop. 200 on the ballot. As it simply required proof of citizenship before receiving the benefits and privileges of citizenship, who could oppose it ? Answer: the entire GOP congressional delegation, led by Sen. John McCain.

This is the same John McCain who battled the border fence and colluded with Teddy Kennedy on the amnesty bill rejected by Congress last year after a national uproar.

Bottom line: If the presidential race is between Hillary and Amnesty John, the border-security battle is over and lost.

For conservatives, the stakes could not be higher.
