Actually there is a lesson here for Republicans. Democrats understand the need to wage losing battles for PR reasons. This shows the Nutsy Left that they "Care" about their issues. If this were the Republicans they would "play it safe" to "avoid a defeat" and give the impression they were just rolling over for the Dems. A symbolic defeat can be more useful for mobilizing the base then all the "Safe" victories. Republicans would be wise to keep in mind that sometime in politics the fact that you waged a FIGHT is as important as WINING

Don't under estimate how many legal AND illegal residents would love free health care, unlimited welfare, and no repercussions for not seeking employment. Believe me the RATS are more than willing to offer it.
