The right fringe isolationists like Malkin and Buchanan are being propped up by the MSM. The MSM knows how they look to average voters. Don't sweat it. If their forces had any power Dubya would not be President, and the House and Senate would be filled with Tancredos.
A rule for successful politicians is "don't take on an issue you can't win." The fact that Dubya is taking this one on indicates he thinks he can pass a guest worker program. He's a pretty persuasive guy and the battle is only just starting.
My spell checker suggests "Malignants" as the first correction for "Malkinbots"
Google "Michelle Malkin" and immigration, and tell me how many MSM hits you get.

Any speculations as to the arguments he'll put forth as to why his plan is better than Tancredo's, despite the fact that the main sticking point is merely that Tancredo would require that aliens apply for the program from their own countries?
