McCain is toast. He is not a factor. Just a waste of time.
McCain knows that Arizonans want an authentic border security bill first. That would prove the Senate’s bona fides (this, of course, will never happen). Second, pass a bill that anyone caught crossing the border illegally will never be eligible for citizenship nor will wife, children, or parents (that data base is huge). Next, deny citizenship to children whose mothers came to the US for the single purpose of giving birth to a child. Follow that with a limited worker program. Kiss off the amnesty bill that would give citizenship to illegals, give Sarkozy American citizenship, and run him for President.
