Romney Spox Refuses to Answer Questions About Romney's Position on Arizona's Immigration Law

Here's what happened when reporters asked one of GOP Presidential nominee Mitt Romney's spokespersons for a reaction to this morning's Supreme Court ruling on Arizona's harsh immigration law:

GORKA: "The governor supports the states' rights to craft immigration laws when the federal government has failed to do so. This president promised as a candidate to address immigration in his first year and hasn't, and waited actually 'til four and a half months before the election to put in place a stopgap measure."

QUESTION: So does he think it's wrongly decided?

GORKA: "The governor supports the states' rights to do this. It's a 10th amendment issue."

QUESTION: So he thinks it's constitutional?

GORKA: "The governor believes the states have the rights to craft their own immigration laws, especially when the federal government has failed to do so."

QUESTION: And what does he think about parts invalidated?

GORKA: "What Arizona has done and other states have done is a direct result of the failure of this president to address illegal immigration. It's within their rights to craft those laws and this debate, and the Supreme Court ruling is a direct response of the president failing to address this issue."

QUESTION: Does (Romney) support the law as it was drafted in Arizona?

GORKA: "The governor supports the right of states, that's all we're going to say on this issue."

QUESTION: Does he have a position on the law, or no position?

GORKA: "The governor has his own immigration policy that he laid out in Orlando and in the primary, which he would implement as president which would address this issue. Whereas Obama has had four years in the office and has yet to address it in a meaningful way."

The exchange, which comes via Politico, goes on like this for quite a while, but the Romney campaign spokesperson never actually answers the question. Like the immigration policy speech Romney gave last week, it's pure dodge. As far as I can tell, Mitt Romney's position on immigration is that he would have one, and that President Obama is wrong.
