He listened to us on Palin and he will listen to us on this. HE knows that illegals would kill his chance for the Whitehouse. His manager is one smart man... and his team is different than the one that pushed that amnesty crap. He still would love to have it... but he knows.

Yes, I do.

McCain, like any politican, must earn my trust before I will vote for him and he hasn't.

Picking Gov. Plain is a start, but he needs to do more to earn my trust. He needs to repudiate his liberal ideas.

The thought struck me today that McCain will break out hearts if is he elected, just as Bush has done in many ways. That said, either is infinitely better IMO than John Kerry or Barry Osama.

“He better not run this crap on television in Ohio. It’s not in the bag here.”

He probably will. McCain is besotted with the notion that he just has to pander to Hispanics. He has zero common sense and zero judgment where this issue is concerned.

Any poll that asked the questions in a sensible way shows that around 70% of Americans oppose his amnesty nonsense and want the laws enforced. He just might ass around enough with this to lose a key state like Ohio or Indiana, or some other by causing some normal Republican voters to sit it out.

Where is his “I got the message” video? That’s what he told Republicans several times during the primaries. The little weasel used that to divert attention of voters, and many will not have forgotten.

“Oh just let it go. We need to cut into Obama’s hispanic numbers. Amnesty is done”

Yeah, like you’re really feeling the effects of amnesty in your border state of Maryland. I’ll bet the hordes of Pennsylvanians swamping your towns is a real burden.

If McCain picking Palin and whipping Obama’s butt in the debates doesn’t convince to come over the the winning team then you are a lost cause.

Besides who are you kidding? You haven’t EARNED the right to throw a man like John McCain under the bus.

No one here I know is opposed to people coming to America legally to work hard and become Americans.

What we oppose is a flood of criminal gangs, terrorists, welfare cases, reconquistadores who hate America, drug runners, and infectious diseases.

It’s gonna be amnesty no matter who wins. The candidates will win, the illegal aliens will win, only the American people will lose.

Why aren't the native born descendants of those who built this nation from the ground up considered "symbols of hope?"

There are lots of illegals in Baltimore. That’s right, they do get licenses from PA and come down here. Obviously you don’t know what you are talking about.

How many times does McCain have to say there will be no amnesty and the borders must be secured?

GREAT! Everyone on this thread agrees. McCain would agree. Let’s move on.

PA issues driver’s licenses to illegal aliens?

What you said describes me, except that it was my Mom who came through Ellis Island. I am one of the small percentage of native-born Americans, I am guessing, whose Mom, wife and child were all born overseas.

I am all for LEGAL immigration. I am wholly opposed to the ILLEGAL variety, because, as you said, it dishonors those who played by the rules.

Well they issue license plates, that’s for sure. Must be some loophole. I can’t tell you how many illegal-types I’ve seen with PA plates.

Amnesty Juan McCain strikes again.

McCain: Mayflower folk, go to hell! We're a nation of immigrants, so y'all come on in!

Except that there is a real difference between the colonists of old and the immigrants of today, both in numbers and character--but no matter. Grab your surfboard and enjoy the flood, Pelham! ;)

Nixon Vs. McGovern, easily.

McCain’s a hero. Pathetic, he isn’t.

I think most of us know that it will be a tumultuous four years with McCain on issues like this, judges, global warming, etc., but the alternative is unbearable. It’s been the same way with GWB. We just have to be ready when McCain and Congress try to sneak crap like this through.
