I don't have a lot of time today, but I wanted to post this article from the Arizona Republic. Basically the job of Sheriff is to run the jail and serve warrants. Sheriff Joe doesn't really enjoy either activity because it limits the number of press conferences with which he can bloviate about stupid totally useless non-sense (apparently it is not cost effective to use his tank to deliver warrants).
I know immigration can be a campaign issue, especially in Arizona, but doesn't having 59,000 unserved felony warrants make you soft on crime? Don't you Republicans remember Willie Horton? All the Sheriff's opponents have to find is one scary looking guy who killed or raped someone because they were not picked up by the Sheriff (or served a warrant), it would be pretty devastating.
