The idea that illegal aliens would vote GOP or their children would out of gratitude for getting legal status has been conclusively debunked. What the GOP should do is pursue an immigration policy that will serve the nation's highest interests, not out of a craven political calculation designed to win Hispanic votes in the future.

Bush should have never opened up this can of worms, the status quo was just fine.

It should come as no surprise to anyone other than a moron that regardless of the facts, the GOP will be blamed for killing this legislation.

The GOP will lose votes in Fl and Texas.

Maybe enough to put Hillary and Obama in the WH.

A President hasn't done anything this stupid since Clinton decided we needed more gays in the military.

What you said!

It is a complete pipe-dream to think that people who support amnesty for illegal aliens would ever vote Republican.

It is obvious to me that the Liberals understand this implicitly, but even a blind, dumb fool can see that this is a wedge issue for conservatives, and they have (and will) do absolutely EVERYTHING in their power to keep this issue front and center up until election day.

Yet another “Ohh, you’ll pay at the polls” MSM article, to that sort of thing it should be said “We enforce the law, whether that is popular or not, the American People expect us to do that and we didn’t and cannot support such obvious pandering to allow the laws of the land to violated because it is politically expedient”

This sort of thing is the exact reason “why” Republicans are the party of law and order, we should not compromise principles to pander for votes...ever.

God forbid that the Democrats actually do that.

Worth repeating.
