"With conservatives being barraged with calls, faxes and e-mails from anti-illegal immigration groups that view the DREAM Act as amnesty, some Republicans who supported the measure in the past have been reluctant to do so now."

It will fail when brought up as a standalone measure. That and the AgJobs amnesty measure both deserve to be defeated. The American people have spoken again.

“The politics is right and the commitment is there,” Bernstein said. “We’re not giving up.”

But for how long? It will be back. Sooner rather than later.

Legislative assistants for these bastards, up on The Hill, will constantly monitor the sentiment out there in flyover country at the grassroots, and when they see a chance, an opening, WHAM!, they will shove it through.

They are just waiting for us to get our guard down.

How I wish Republicans would learn this habit. Democrats NEVER admit defeat but keep trying trying trying trying. Republicans lose a vote and drop the issue.

"All who care about this matter should know that we will move to proceed to this matter before we leave here," he [Durbin] said.

Look for this to be slipped into something on a voice vote at the last minute where there is nothing recorded so they think we can't hold them accountable and we hear nothing until Bush has signed it, and it's a done deal. That's my guess. They aren't going to quit and neither are we, so it will have to be something like that.

The prospects for immediate Senate action on the DREAM Act, which would grant legal status to hundreds of thousands of young illegal immigrants, disappeared Wednesday amid Republican opposition.

But we need to stay alert----Dem hyphenate sluts won't give up.

“Josh Bernstein, federal policy director for the National Immigration Law Center, predicted DREAM Act supporters eventually will prevail.

“The politics is right and the commitment is there,” Bernstein said. “We’re not giving up.””

Neither are we Mr. Sleaseball!
