No. It will be a 'victory' for state's rights and they have no claim
to federal help.


the Feds can't win a suit against Arizona for enforcing it's state
law,


(Unless it's found to be unconstitutional)

and Arizona can't win a suit against the Feds for the Feds NOT enforicng
its law


If Arizona wins it's on its own.


Exactly. A state that goes against the federal government usually sees
a reduction in federal funding. It happened a decade ago when Kentucky
refused to enforce its marijuana laws since it improved the local
economies in the Eastern counties. The feds swooped down and said,
"Start busting thse pot farmers or we'll withhold all federal
funding."

The real question is whether or not Arizona can withstand such
penalties. Kentucky couldn't.
