On MSNBC I heard something that confirmed my theory(I have posted a few times) . All this anti-Arizona pro-immigration reform spin is about democrats strategy for 2012, not 2010. They believe that hispanics will come out in numbers to vote in 2012 and that Republicans cannot win the white house without them. In the case of 2010, democrats will suffer for this strategy(which we know is true). Yesterday Ed Schulz (MSNBC) had a democrat leaning analysis on that stated this.
Personally I think that if Republicans can make Obama own the deficit and economy in 2012, as he does now, he will have trouble getting Hispanics to vote for him in large numbers.
