IMHO, it will get to critical mass at the grassroots level across the land, first within the conservative movement where it already has a firm footing and is getting even hotter (as we speak!) and then increasingly with John Q. Sixpack, the great middle class of the USA, a huge component of the vote. This has the potential of being an incredible Ross Perot-style open political rebellion against the established order of Do Nothing Bush/RNC and Do Nothing Democrats.
Then, Watch for 'Republicans With Finger In Air-types' suddenly to come to Jesus, and start to make all kinds pronouncements and slick moves against illegal aliens to fortify their tenuous positions.
They will do this despite their terrible voting records of allowing this thing to fester.
They may add to their new found rhetoric (they are only interested in saving their congressional seats, not the Republic), a couple of votes in favor of the anti-illegal alien position.
Just enough to solidify their positions for the general election of 2006. The clever, slick, insincere SNEAKY b*stards. They will say all the right things, hoping nobody will notice their actual voting records or true intent. Lots of these buzzards are masters of deceit. I think they can now see the handwriting on the wall and will find ways to spin their positions.
Then they will go right back to their pro-illegal or inactive positions on this issue for 2007 onward.
Lots of Americans will be sold out, but it will only be THEIR fault. They need to fiercely examine how these guys have voted all along. Conservatives either need to stay home, or vote third party conservative when faced with such RINOs On the Issue of Illegal Immigragtion, standing for reelection in their districts.
It is the ONLY way they will get the message.
**Conservatives either need to stay home, or vote third party conservative**
Meet Speaker of the House Pelosi. Welcome to two years of impeachment hearings and the rats destroying our ability to win the WOT.
