Unfortunately I can't shake the feeling the that Arizona law managed to polarize an entire state by sort of forcing the hispanic vote out of the equation. First it forced the undocumented to flee the state, then businesses that catered to the hispanic started seeing their profits and customer base plummet and finally there is the law that targets and burdens the hispanic people which we all know are not the only undocumented immigrants in this country, they just happen to represent the majority. The result is a state with an anti-hispanic law that is stressing USC hispanics to the point that they may decide to leave the state and favor more hispanic friendly states.

The issue that I see with all this is that we may see something similar to the state of Wyoming, where a relatively small portion of the country (the state has a population just above 0.5 million) selects a senator that has the same weight as another senator selected by a much larger population, thus also having the potential to polarize the senate. I worry senators are jumping on this law to ultimately eliminate their worries of the hispanic vote.

but maybe I am just being irrationally paranoid.
