Architect of Anti-Immigrant Bills Endorses Romney 
--------------------------------------------------



Immigration rights groups are criticizing Mitt Romney for embracing an
endorsement from Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach. Kobach helped
draft anti-immigrant legislation in Arizona and Alabama. Democratic Rep.
Luis Gutiérrez condemned Romney for working with Kobach, whom he
described as the "dark lord of the anti-immigration movement."
