It seems as if Hillary Clinton has faced alot of criticisms from alot presidential candidates in both parties for refusing commitment on answers on The New York Governor Eliot Spitzers view to allow illegal immigrants in his state to receive driver's licenses. The Governor did back away from this attempt.

Hillary stated "I support Governor Spitzer's decision today to withdraw his proposal."
Hillary also stated"As president, I will not support driver's licenses for undocumented people and will press for comprehensive immigration refor that deals with all of the issues around illegal immigration including border security and fixing our broken system."
Clinton was stumbling about the issue during a democratic debate that happened two weeks ago.
Colleen Flanagan, a spokesman for Chris Dodd, called Clinton's position "flip-flopping cubed. She was for it before she was against it, before she was for it, before she was against it."
Spitzer admitted that there was too much public opposition to his plan.
"It does not take a stethoscope to hear the pulse of New Yorkers on this topic," he said.

Governor Spitzer introduced the plan two months ago with the goal of increased security, safer roads and an opportunity to bring immigrants "out of the shadows." Rivals to this plan believed this would make it easier for would-be terrorists to get identification, and make the country less safe.
Michael Chertoff, Homeland Securties Secretary, called Spitzer's reversal on the license issue "a good development" and said immigration is a federal issue for which his department has to "ramp up enforcement."
