Grace Hanna: "Sounds as though the Republicans can't handle the type of "heavy-handed tactic" they have been handing out for years. Need I mention Gov. Fife Symington?"

Dave Ellett: "I will never call Squaw Peak by anything other than its legitimate name. Piestewa Peak is not a legitimate name, since the laws and procedures instituted by the people of Arizona were not followed, but rather were trampled on by their governor."

Paul Glick: "Piestewa Peak was a great move by our governor. It is nice to have a governor with the courage to be decisive on this type of issue."

Karl Almquist: "Arizona is in deep trouble if the blatant exercise of raw political power by Gov. Janet Napolitano is a sign of things to come."
