Okay, let's start with the 50% who support deportation of illegals.

Now subtract from that 50% the voters who are Democrats and yes even liberals who want to see illegals deported. What you have left is a position that the Republican party won't support.

Under your highly, ahem, "original" form of mathematical analysis, would you be able to accept even 100% as sufficient to constitute a "supportable position" for the Republicans, once you subtract from that 100% the democrats, the liberals, the Communists, the Republicans who hate Bush, the Bushites who don't vote, the Wobblies...

I live in a liberal state. I am surrounded by liberals. Some of these liberals hate illegal immigration. Some of these same liberals would never vote for a Republican even if that Republican supported random ID checks at their places of employment by ICE agents.

I know these people. The math wasn't original.

BTW, you should have that *ahem* post nasal drip looked at. It impairs your *ahem* delivery.
