There is concern firebrands may alienate Latino voters.

With President Barack Obama vowing to press ahead on immigration, prominent Hispanic Republicans are worried about the reaction of staunch conservatives. They fear it will harm the party's ability to win over Latinos in the next presidential election and beyond.

While immigration was generally a muted issue in midterm elections dominated by the GOP, Obama promised the next day to move ahead on his own to remove the threat of deportation or grant work permits to an unspecified number of immigrants living here illegally.

They might not be afraid of Obama, but they ARE afraid of big GOP donors who want amnesty. Remember the golden rule — he who has the gold rules.

I usually don’t watch the network news but was watching a little bit yesterday and today because of the election.

Just a few minutes ago, I think it was NBC which said the Republicans warned Obama not to try and fix immigration on his own.

I love the way they put it. Obama is doing his best to fix it but the mean old Republicans may not let him.
