It is illogical to deny the elections were a huge win for the illegal immigration lobby.
And with loudmnouth tancredo leading the "charge", be prepared for more losses, IMO.
I don't deny that the election results are bad news for those opposed to amnesty and massive increases in permanent legal immigration hidden under the guise of 'guest worker' programs. Since the GOP House was the only thing stopping such GOP-destroying policies from becoming law, then obviously the chances of them passing are now much greater. On immigration, we now have a very liberal President and a very liberal Senate. The House remains to be seen, but again, chances are that it has moved left on this issue as well.
What I take exception to is the absurd and false claim that it was a refusal to embrace 'comprehensive' reform that led to, or contributed to, the GOP rout. Unlimited immigration enthusiasts like Jacoby are putting forth the ludicrous idea that passage of 'comprehensive' reform would have helped or even saved the GOP on election day.
