January 26, 2012 Brewer, Obama Have Sometimes Testy Exchange "President Obama and Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer (R) appeared to exchange heated words in front of reporters and other public officials on Wednesday as Obama arrived in this Southwestern city for the second stop of his post-State of the Union tour," the Washington Post reported.
Gingrich Pulls Attack Ad After Rubio Complaint "Newt Gingrich has removed an ad calling Mitt Romney the "most anti-immigrant candidate" in the race, after Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, who has decided not to endorse anyone, denounced the ad and called it "inflammatory." "We respect Senator Rubio tremendously and will remove the ad from the rotation" until it is edited to remove the offending language, said Jose Mallea, Gingrich's Florida campaign state director," Fox News reported.
Democrats Attack Romney, Not Gingrich "The Democratic National Committee has handicapped Tuesday's presidential primary in Florida and come to the conclusion that Mitt Romney is the likely winner or the bigger threat," says the Miami Herald. "On a conference call with reporters Thursday, Democratic political consultant Freddy Balsera of Miami and state Rep. Darren Soto, D-Orlando, spent 20 minutes blasting Romney for his shifting position on the DREAM act, his "anti-immigrant" rhetoric, and his "ridiculous" suggestion that the solution to illegal immigration is that people will "self deport." Never once did they mention his Republican rivals, particularly former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who is running in a virtual dead heat with the former Massachusetts governor in recent polls."
Texas Will Push Illegal College Students to Apply for Status "A Texas law that permits some undocumented immigrants to pay in-state college tuition rates, an issue that helped send Republican Gov. Rick Perry's presidential campaign into a downward spiral, is set to be adjusted Thursday in an effort to remind students of their promise to seek legal status. Thursday's vote on a rule change by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board is a small step toward putting more pressure on those students to follow up on their pledge," Fox News Latino writes. Meanwhile, trustees at the State University of New York said they support giving assistance to illegal aliens. "The current demographic realities of New York State indicate that many of the brightest and hardest-working students eligible to enroll at SUNY are of undocumented status, and it is imperative that SUNY remain accessible to these students," said H. Carl McCall, chairman of the board of trustees.
