We tried to warn the GOP that the immigration marches in the spring would depress the base and it did.

Frankly, I'm absolutely disgusted that the lack of a fence which has never before existed in our history (what are the odds of it becoming a reality under a dem controlled congress) is more important than the young men and women fighting in Iraq. Regardless of how "wide open" our borders are we have yet to be attacked here at home since 911, yet everyday our soldiers face bullets and bombs on our behalf. They have yet to lose even ONE battle in Iraq, but like their fathers before them who fought in Vietnam, with this election we may have condemned them to coming home feeling defeated because they left a job half done. Next thing you know Jon Carry will be bloviating about spending New Years in a Swift Boat over the Iranian border. And 2 years from now when the 2008 elections roll around we still won't have a fence, God knows what the situation in Iraq (or Afghanistan for that matter) will be, but the democrats will have become more entrenched. As the mother of one son who just left the service last year and one just beginning his, I can't begin to tell you the fear in my heart for my child. Evidently the right throws a tantrum every bit as well as the left.

And would someone please tell me how electing a Dem in Arizona is going to help stop illegal immigration more than a Republican?

They never saw the open border policy as their potential downfall. I bet they do now. If illegal aliens are rubber stamped now, the GOP will be dead forever.

You can't fight a WOT with open borders.

I'm as upset about the border as the next person, but not so upset that I was willing to turn power over to the democratic party. I did hear earlier this week that the Buchananites were not voting GOP.
