It was not long ago that opposition to amnesty (which is what this will be) was over 70%. I'm having a hard time believing that people are now suddenly for it, especially in this economy. I remember that some polling outfit (Pew, I believe) ginned up polling data to make the GOP think that people were hot for campaign finance reform, when in fact this was not the case. With the GOP being run by idiots, of course, they fell for the polling numbers and passed bad legislation. This appears to be a repeat in the making.

Yes, seems like only yesterday that to espouse closing the borders, enforcing existing immigration laws, strengthening the military, lowering taxes and promoting employment were slam dunk issues for a Republican candidate. I find it hard to believe that the public has done a 180 on these topics.

The polls ask people if they want "immigration reform". They think it means tightening or enforcing existing laws, so they say "yes". Then the pollsters turn around and make the bogus assumption that a majority want the laws changed.
The RINOs are in on the scam because they want to keep the conservative vote and still provide cheap labor for their puppetmasters.
