N.Y. Gov. Spitzer Abandons Illegal D.L. Plan

Perfect timing New York Governor Eliot Spitzer, on the eve of the Democratic Presidential Debate. AP
WASHINGTON - New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer has decided to abandon a plan to issue driver's licenses to illegal immigrants, officials familiar with the decision told The Associated Press Tuesday night.
The governor is due to meet Wednesday morning with New York's congressional delegation, many of whom openly oppose the program. Debate over the issue also has spilled into New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's presidential campaign.
Spitzer gave hint that he may do this in San Juan recently. Close to 70% if not more, New Yorkers opposed illegal aliens obtaining drivers licenses. It is suspicious though, that today would be the day for the announcement, the day before all the Dems meet in Las Vegas.

*Updated* N.Y. Governor Spitzer will officially announce this on Wednesday. Thank Goodness!!
