HILLARY CLINTON

A Late-Breaking Moment of Drama on Driver's Licenses for Illegal Immigrants

Hillary on driver's licenses for illegal immigrants: "Spitzer is trying to make up for the failure of the Bush Administration to address illegal immigration. He's filling a vaccuum... We need to get back to comprehensive immigration reform."

Obama backs it, of course, citing a "public safety concern."
