What I find disturbing about this is that , due to the complexity of the bureaucracy, this may be a win, but I fully expect that liberals will, knowing that even plugged in and well informed voters may not grasp it, obfuscate, break the law, then obfuscate some more when called on it.
It is like trying to explain Whitewater to someone. Their eyes begin to glaze.

That leaves 13 states in mixed control. Again, the GOP has a major opportunity here to make citizenship matter. Now’s the time to do it.
