I hate to point out the obvious error but it was buchanan and tancredo billing it as a national referendum...

There is no error on my part, though there is a second on yours.

Go back to the threads of the primary during and after. You were on them. They still exist in FR banks. And you know, and I know, it was claimed that primary destroyed Tancredo in national politics as an influential force..and that amnesty has gained the approval of the American people.

FF to present. I see no evidence of those claims having become reality. I really don't know if Tancrdeo claimed that race as a national referndum. I don't remember. But I know amnesty folks claimed the same after the race. And I also know the Pence/Hutchinson plan was typed up recently, in the Washington Times? As having been rejected by the majority of their Republicans collegues in the House.

Lesson learned? That primary ended up changing little in this fight. But it's all you have to hold to, so, I know you'll continue to do so.

LOL! Reality sure does bite doesn't it.

Yes, go back to those threads. It was buchanan and tancredo claiming it was going to be a national referendum leading up to the election. You folks were sured fired up about your referendum; tons of out-of-state money and volunteers came into the state for "your" referendum. In the real world that's called loosing your arse. For instance, look at this thread: it has less posts then the one about the "Air America Complaint Department" that started a day later. Yep...a real hot topic.
