Immigration Politics - Arizona: A place where passions run high

A look at Douglas, Arizona, a border town in Rep. Gifford's congressional district.

A place where passions run high: "Giffords's district offers a case study of problems that have driven much of Arizona's politics to a boiling point. The 8th District is fiercely independent, much like its congresswoman, who mucked horse stalls as a child and rides motorcycles without a helmet.

The Gunfight at the O.K. Corral took place midway between Tucson and the border at Tombstone, now a tourist trap - 'The Town Too Tough to Die' - that resembles a Hollywood lot for some Wild West flick." Jan. 17, 2011, Washington Post
