Yes, that’ll show them. When millions of illegals are granted citizenship,the pressure on voting for the perfect candidate will be mute!

Obviously, each voter is responsive for the consequences of their own votes. So in that sense, you can always blame the voters for the wrong people being elected.

But that's only half the story. There are a lot of voters - enough to swing elections - who are persuadable either way, and they don't always make their decisions based on hard policy. We can't afford to lose all those voters by nominating candidate who will alienate them. And if we do, it is our fault for pushing unelectable candidate because we should know better.
