If it wasn't going to affect commerce in the state she would never have vetoed it. Money talks. Where is the courage of the RWnutz convictions? LOL I thought they really believed the BS hate they spew.

I don't care about her motivation. This is a good thing (not for jean, but rather the hundreds of thousands of gay citizens in Arizona).

Of course they didn't suddenly see the light. Otoh, I'll take a little "enlightened" self interest and the knowledge that sometimes pressure works

She is phony and it was commerce.
