"to swing toward Democratic candidates."

I guess if they keep saying it might become true but by my count 15 dims voted against the legislation.

In fact if they hadn't it's doubtful it could have been stopped.

This is the "secure borders" proponents are anti-Hispanic racists. The MSM likes to foster a perception so laughable it isn't even true.

A whole 15 out of the 50 Democrats in the senate?

That means the vast majority of Democrats, 70% of these Marxists, voted to end debate on a bill that had not been fully debated, that 80% of the American people were against, and that would give Amnesty to 20 million illegals and their families back in the 3rd world.

Republicans almost had enough votes to stop this bill if not for the liberal democrats disguised as Republicans like Lott, McCain,Graham , Hagel, Specter et al.

Hispanics who were born in the U.S. don’t want a flood of 3rd world immigrants coming to the U.S. to take their jobs just as other Americans don’t want that either.

The liberal media keeps telling us we need floods of immigrants legal and illegal to help our economy . Nothing could be further from the truth. Yes maybe in 1800 when we had a whole continent to fill up we needed immigrants but someone should tell the media that we have 300 million people in the U.S. already and the continent is full.

Actually worker shortages (less people) would benefit any country. Business would have to pay workers more. Businesses would innovate and invest in technology and capital that would make businesses more productive ( that is the only way living standards rise). So more immigrants have the opposite effect lower wages decreased capital investment, lower living standards etc.

Hispanic Americans as well as other Americans don't want hundreds of millions of 3rd world immigrants coming to America to transform the U.S. into a 3rd world socialist hell hole, Mexico, or India where there is plenty of cheap labor.
