GWB, McCain, Graham, et al, they all knew this too, and they nevertheless tried to ram amnesty down our throats in 2007. Just makes no sense.
But 8 million votes? That is LOWBALL. There are approximately 20 million illegals in the US. Amnesty would allow them to bring in immediate family members. So that could be another 20-40 million.
And if they break 80% Dem....well, it would be more like 32-48 million more Dem votes.
