Great timing by the Thompson campaign. This will cost Rudy a lot of votes.
Thompson’s campaign is pounding this. Great timing by Fred. They were given a gift by Rudy and Thompson’s campaign seized the opportunity.
Can’t wait to see the eventual ads that will appear.
Problem is that Fred's Senate voting record on immigration is almost 100% pro-immigration. If he tries to make an issue out of Rootytoot's position on immigration his voting record will be brought up, and it will show him to have voted against almost every bill that would have placed more restrictions on immigration and heavier penalties on employers who hire illegals.
I like Fred' position on many other issues and I will probably vote for him unless a more conservative candidate with equal name recognition announces, but I don't like his record on immigration issues. He is singing an altogether different tune on immigration now that he's running for president, but I can't easily overlook how he voted on that issue when he was in the Senate.
