Hillary " Broadly Supports" Licensing Illegals

Trying to avoid a "John Kerryesque " moment from the last Democratic presidential debate, Hillary Clinton now says she supports states' efforts to issue driver's licenses to illegal aliens.

Clinton was roundly criticized for her avoidance of a simple question from journalist Tim Russert on whether she supported NY Governor Elliott Spitzer's move to license illegals' in that state. It appeared she may one day say she was against it before she was for it.. or vice versa.

Good to know where Hillary stands...and that she'll probably pay a price in the general election in 2008. Either way she is now on the record. Clinton's argument is that driver's hit by undocumented immigrants and those in the shadows who need to come out would be helped, is touching, if seemingly insincere. Pandering for Hispanic votes and making access to the polls easier for illegal immigrants in 2008 is more likely.
