No surprise. In fact, I assume Reid postponed todays Senate vote until tomorrow precisely so that he could pressure fencesitters by telling them theyre now in position to make the DREAM come true. 38 Democrats voted no with the GOP versus just eight Republicans who crossed the aisle to vote yes. The defectors:
Joe Cao (defeated in general election)
Mike Castle (defeated in primary)
Lincoln Diaz-Balart (retiring)
Mario Diaz-Balart
Charles Djou (defeated in general election)
Vern Ehlers (retiring)
Bob Inglis (defeated in primary)
Ileana Ros-Lehtinen
If youre looking to punish any of them with a primary, the pickings are slim.

Please folks, please call your senators. We need to stop this or my fears of a lame duck amnesty will be proved true.
I might say we need to prevent lame duck sessions in the future, but that would be just a big DISTRACTION.
CALL YOUR SENATORS TOMORROW!!!!
They are going to shove amnesty down our throats.
It’s some kind of amnesty bill. What’s in it?
This Congress will go down as the most DESTRUCTIVE Congress in the history of our beloved country. IT IS AMNESTY!! CLOSE THE BORDER and then bring it up.
Looks like CRIMINALS will be getting citizenship!
not even close.
The republicans said no bills would pass the Senate until the Budget and the Tax extensions were voted on! All 42 Republican Senators signed the letter. I hope they keep their word!
I call that 216 traitors to America. End of story.
Dang RiNoS!
DeMint needs to do anything and everything to stop this.
F#*king bastards!
At this point, it’s hard to imagine it not getting through the Senate since the illegals will have RINO support...
When are we going to get to the business of decorating light posts around DC?
---------------------------------
The border gates are wide open, invite them all in!!!!
Then we can give all 20 million mortgages as welcoming gifts!
When the foreign occupier employed the phrase "fundamentally transforming America" two years ago, that's precisely what he meant. Zer0 has no intention of going quietly.
Vern Ehlers REPUBLICAN (retiring)
DeMint doesn’t run the Senate.
Next year he won’t run it either....
Tomorrow Obama officially wins re-election, and countless other Democrats will be elected and hold office for years to come. With up to 20 million more votes at their disposal, it’s practically a death blow for conservatism in America.
