Nancy Pelosi has it right when she says passing immigration reform is more important then winning back the senate this year.
If she said that then she is dumber than I thought, even if it were passed this afternoon, they would not instantly become American Citizens and vote in November.
Pelosi is taking the long term look.
If immigration reform gets passed this year, the Socialists will lose the 2014 elections in the Senate and House , but by 2016 the illegal aliens will be able to vote, and will tip that election, and all future elections in favor of the socialists. -Tom
