Lets say that provision was in a bill that passed, meaning Republicans didn't cave to get a bill (which I bet a POTUS Romney would try as GWB did) and so some Dems supported this to get it through the Senate (very unlikely.)

Getting Dem votes for this would be a move towards expanding the idea to those born here of illegal parents, which is why Dems would never go for it.
