While the number of illegal aliens within our borders is not precisely known, most estimates range from 12 to 20 million. Unfortunately these are only guesstimates no one actually knows how many there are. Some claim it could be 30 million or higher. If each amnestied illegal only brings in three dependents, our population could increase anywhere from 48 to 120 million and perhaps many more.
If McCain had any smarts he would be well aware of the problems we have now with overcrowding on our roads, schools, jails, courts plus power outages and water shortages due to an expanding population but unfortunately McCain is clueless.
Last seen on TV, McCain was making excuses and back pedaling on amnesty as fast as he could but the wheels had already fallen off his wagon.
No intelligent person ever considered McCain a “frontrunner” or even a contender in this race. The only people who did were journalists, who labeled him as such with no evidence whatsoever.
McCain was never a front runner.
It wasn’t the amnesty bill and cozying up to Ted Kennedy that killed his chances but McCain/Feingold and the “gang of 14” that did the most damage. Of course the MSM has a shorter memory that the voters and those issues had already fallen off their radar. For some reason they can only concentrate on today’s issue and conveniently ignore the past blunders.
Now we need for Snowe, Hegel, Specter, et al to get their just desserts...
It’s all about “Amnesty John” and his Democrat views on border security.
He didn’t fall by supporting the President on Iraq — everyone knew his position there.
This will be a good lesson for those other “Amnesty First” politicians — Democrat and Republican.

While with his other face he is busy sponsoring the Dream Act (allowing in-state tuition and amnesty for illegals), with co-sposors Hillary and Ted.
McCain was never the front runner.
Not only did I never consider McCain a “frontrunner” (laughable at best), I never considered him a starter.
His past has finally caught up with him (as has his age) and he simply is not electable, nor is he presidential material.
The wheels came off McCain’s “Straight Talk Express” in 2000 and there isn’t a mechanic anywhere that can replace them.
Sorry, John, but your “campaign” is still DOR (Dead On the Road).
