“If the Republicans want power back, they better show that they’re actually worthy of being granted power rather than acting like they’re entitled to it, simply because they’re not the Democrats. “

I don’t think the following will work too well :

” Yes, I’m for”comprehensive immigration reform” amnesty with chain migration), and maybe cap n trade, but I’m not a Democrat”

I liked former Congressman Duncan Hunter's approach, which was to enforce the law, and send illegals back to their home countries, telling them that if they want to visit OR work in America, to do it legally or don't bother.

The Eisenhower Administration had immense success with 'Operation Wetback' and there is no reason that approach would not work today, if there was the political will to make it work.
