Run For The Border

This Daily Kos/Research 2000 poll of the Arizona immigration law is pretty astounding.

Based on what you know or have heard about the new Arizona Immigration Law, do you favor or oppose it?
      Favor  Oppose  Not Sure
ALL     53      36      11
DEM     12      79       9
REP     89       7       4
IND     46      28      26
WHITE   63      26      11
LATINO  15      76       9
BLACK    8      80      12

Interesting stuff.  Yes, people do favor the law.  Whites favor the law substantially.  Look what happens when the results of the law are asked as a question:

Arizona now requires anyone passing through or living in their state to carry papers proving citizenship that can be produced at the command of any law enforcement officers. Do you approve or disapprove of this requirement?
      Approve  Disapprove  Not Sure
ALL      48        44         8
DEM      10        88         2
REP      85        11         4
IND      37        41        22
WHITE    58        35         7
LATINO    9        81        10
BLACK     4        83        13

Very interesting there too.  Still, people favor the law, but not quite as much.  Even a few Republicans shift gears on this, but still...Republicans overwhelmingly love them some government interference.

Here's my question: If you're a Tea Party Republican, and you hate you some gubmint...how come you love you some police state?
