Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) is bullish about the chances of an immigration reform bill passing the Senate — and he says Republicans need to pass it to avoid falling further into a "demographic death spiral" that could hurt their chances in the next two big election cycles.
"If we don't pass immigration reform, if we don't get it off the table in a reasonable, practical way, it doesn't matter who you run in 2016," Graham said on NBC's "Meet the Press" Sunday.

He and his older sister sure seem desperate to prove their loyalty to Dear Leader these days. Its like they’re buckin for Jay Carney’s job.
Lindsey Graham describes himself as “Republican by day, Democrat by night.”
No one should care what people like that say.

I am glad we have men like Graham to watch our backs.
Hate to tell you Lindsey,Its America which has been in a Death Spiral for decades,I couldnt care less about the Damn Stupid Republican or Democrat party.
It started when the immigration Quotas were changed in 1965,The whale from Massachussetts said it would not change the demographics of the Country,anyone at the timw who said it would were called Racists and worse as is the case today.
So the demise has been long in coming and has been relentless,anti american individuals with all the best College educations have lulled people into a Nice comfortable place ,we are now ripe for the picking,were just playing out the string.
Grahamed if ya do, Grahamed of ya don’t.
This Graham guy is a liberal Democrat.
Period.
Speak for yourself. I’m a woman, and he’s not watching my back.
I want it more than you do.
But this is all about his war chest and his donors. He's got Duke Power, all the lawyers, energy companies from all over the country. He's got big money. And the SC GOP is scared witless of him. He will probably have the Koch bros.
I was hoping trey Gowdy might consider running against him.
LOL
He CAN’T be stupid enough to think amnesty is a good idea so he must be evil. This is not hard to figure out. What is hard to figure out is what we can do to get even - forget getting America back that’s over that ship has sailed. Now we have to think primary for evil people like this and mean it. I’ll gladly spend a few weeks in South Carolina helping out.
Screw the Republican Party. Time to really promote Conservatism in America...!
Slow path to progress for U.S. immigrants: 43% on welfare after 20 years
The study, which covers all immigrants, legal and illegal, and their U.S.-born children younger than 18, found that immigrants tend to make economic progress by most measures the longer they live in the U.S. but lag well behind native-born Americans on factors such as poverty, health insurance coverage and homeownership.
The study, based on 2010 and 2011 census data, found that 43 percent of immigrants who have been in the U.S. at least 20 years were using welfare benefits, a rate that is nearly twice as high as native-born Americans and nearly 50 percent higher than recent immigrants.
