From link : “After all, because of Obamacare the electoral landscape is so tilted towards the GOP that it looks likely we'll add seats in the House and take the Senate back. With the filibuster as good as dead, why wouldn't Republicans want to write a tough immigration bill on their terms in 2015 and force Obama to either sign on to it or veto a bill that the public supports? “

???? Any bill that gives US citizenship is not that tough.
I could write a tough bill that would make it hurt Dems to support it.

This writer is on the amnesty side.

My theory is that the GOP wants this over by the 2016 primary and they figure they will pick up seats this year no matter what, but it will never be over. No matter what GOP passes Dems will demand more the next election.

Cokie Roberts on ABC Sunday claims the bill will be put up for a vote after its too late to file for primary challenges.
