Define "done enough."

I hate to say it, especially here, but comprehensive reform, like the President's plan, is what's going to sell. Hard-liners like Randy Graf can win primaries, but their solutions just aren't going to sell.

As maddening as it is, the independent and swing voters that Republicans have to win over to win just aren't that agitated - at least not enough to embrace deportation.

But, yeah, I think it's going to be McCain, after this.

As much as I disagree with him on some issues, I think it should be McCain.

America's bitter divisions provide encouragement to our enemies. Put McCain up against Hillary (and it will be Hillary now, let's not kid ourselves abotu that, etiher), and he can win 55% of the vote. I think that America needs that.

But keep in mind that mass deportations of Mexicans is insane and would also lead to an economic collapse. Why do so many conservatives support such a crazy idea, and believe me it IS crazy? I can't believe how little some people know about economics and the consequences of deporting millions of workers. The only reasonable course of action is to deport criminals and people on welfare and then stop further illegal immigration.
