Is Arizona Finally Fed Up with Right-Wing Politics?

Arizona Senate President Russell Pearce, the conservative politician and former cop who famously sponsored Arizona's anti-illegal immigration bill SB1070, is in cheap clothing stores . This time, though, the fight isn't about birthright citizenship or Obama's birth certificate: it's about whether voters in Pearce's west Mesa district will let him serve out the remainder of his two-year term.

On Tuesday, Governor Jan Brewer, wholesale designer clothing , scheduled a recall election for Nov. 8 after an anti-Pearce group calling itself Citizens for a Better Arizona submitted more than 10,000 valid signatures in favor of special election (nearly 3,000 more signatures than required by law). Pearce has said he may challenge the validity of the cheap clothes , which he told Reuters were gathered by "outside forces that support lax law enforcement, amnesty and open borders." And if there is an election, it's unclear who will stand against him or whether the challenge will be a serious one. But either way, the recall — the first ever against a sitting Senate President in Arizona — may be an early bellwether for the GOP leading into the cheap clothes online . Which will resonate more with Pearce's conservative district: grandstanding or governance?
