[Q]: San Diego (CNN) -- I bet it sounded like a good idea at the time. Now, not so much. "It" was the ill-conceived decision by GOP presidential hopeful Rick Perry to hitch his wagon to the clownish Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio, an opportunist who in recent years has taken to rounding up illegal immigrants and parading them outside his jail to catch the attention of television cameras. How did Perry get mixed up with that circus? Simple. The Texas governor got into a political scrape, and made the mistake of overcompensating. He was looking for quick validation from his party's nativist fringe because he had gotten hammered by GOP rivals for signing, in 2001, a reasonable bill in the Lone Star State that allows illegal immigrants who go to college to pay what other residents pay: in-state tuition.Ruben Navarrette Jr.: Rick Perry has hitched his wagon to Arizona Sheriff Joe ArpaioPerry was foolishly looking for quick validation from his party's nativist fringe, Navarrette saysJustice Department has accused Arpaio of discrimination and racial profiling, he saysA once-promising candidate has lost his bearings, Navarrette says of Perry

[Q]: (CNN) It's too soon to know exactly how many children were harmed by lead-poisoned water in Flint, Michigan, the state's governor says. But officials are bracing for the possibility of a much higher tally than what blood tests have revealed so far. "There could be many more," Gov. Rick Snyder told CNN, "and we're assuming that." In an interview with CNN's Poppy Harlow on Wednesday, the state's embattled governor discussed efforts to repair damage in Flint, the investigation into how lead-poisoned water ended up in residents' homes and the class action lawsuits against the city and state. One difficulty officials are facing, Snyder said, is that lead might no longer show up in a blood test after time has passed.Michael Moore: Blame for Flint's water crisis "is squarely" in the governor's lap"It's too soon to tell" how long it will take to replace lead pipes, Michigan's governor saysA lawsuit seeks additional water testing and replacement of Flint residents' lead water pipes
