Sniff the air. Is the scent of hypocrisy present here? Hillary! is saying screw logic, screw consistency. What positions can get me the most votes. That's where I will go. Of course it is no surprise to see illogic and hypocrisy on the part of the junior Senator from New York. Such behavior, however, needs to be noted whenever it rears its ugly head.

Every poll has shown that the electorate overwhelmingly wants illegal immigration curtailed. The administration and the RNC have done nothing to address the issue. Quite the contrary, they have attempted to exploit and out pander the Dems on the issue.
Into this vacuum steps the most opportunistic politician in history. She's evil yes, but not stupid and being the golden child of the Democratic Party and the media makes her immune from any racist allegation of her intentions. She can appear tougher on national security than the president and can tap into the ground swell of popular opinion against illegal immigration and the Republicans' inability to do anything about it.
The RNC has ignored this conservative issue and seeded it to whoever wants to run with it. We are after all the stupid party. Its makes perfect sense the evil party should take advantage of this golden opportunity.
Many of us at FR have warned that the RNC was ignoring this issue at its peril. We can debate the constitutionality of a national ID card until the cows come, its not the underlining issue here.
Actually it is the odor of Facism/tyranny...and may have fatal effects.
