At a meeting of the National Governors Association attended by White House officials this weekend, Democratic governors reportedly expressed concerns that the Obama administration’s lawsuit against the state of Arizona over its new immigration law could cost the party in the fall elections:

At the Democrats’ meeting on Saturday, some governors bemoaned the timing of the Justice Department lawsuit, according to two governors who spoke anonymously because the discussion was private.

He added, “It is such a toxic subject, such an important time for Democrats.”
