"Wrong, and you want to know why? Because the President has already set the national agenda on border and immigration reform and all it takes is a quick scan through the numerous immigration threads on FR at this very instance and you will see it's not enough for this core of single issue voters."
The President has set his policies.
And those policies are the ANTITHESIS of everything the BorderBots have been saying they want for months and months.
So, what has happened is that the President has set an unnacceptable agenda to these people, and to the Republican House of Representatives, and he is going to be blocked in implementing that.
Now, as with Miers, he can either back down and retool and offer something acceptable, or he can be stubborn, put the plane into a jam dive, and we all crash and burn in November.
I don't want to crash and burn, but the President's immigration agenda cannot stand. It is too offensive to Border Conservatives. They aren't going to back it. And without them, there is no Republican majority.
NOTHING is acceptible to those people, which is why THEY are unacceptible to the process. The sooner they can either act like adults and accept that they ARE NOT going to get exactly what they want and work with what they get, the better for them. Until then they can curl up in a corner with their hankys between bouts of screaming fits.
