It did not resonate because most voters do not deal with the misery of illegals...at least not yet.
My God if it didn't resonate, where were these people last year when we had streets choked with hispanics, many illegal, marching and saying how they wanted Reconquista? Our dumbed-down educational system has ruined this country when people know more about Britney Speers and KFed than illegal immigration and what it is costing our society.
