Yes, he did, and regretted, as told by Michael Reagan, as his worst political mistake.
You see his Amnesty included tough provisions against employers and future Illegal Immigrants that were never enforced.
That amnesty didn't do a thing to move hispanics to the GOP, absolutely nothing.
And yet Perry, with his strong support for Comprehensive Immigration Reform, his positions against E-Verify, AZ1070, a Border Fence, etc. seems determined to repeat the same mistakes that he should have learned from Reagans mistake.
Why?
