And, if you mean by 'mainstream Republican', someone who will turn a blind eye to the danger of unchecked, illegal immigration, you're right, that's not me. I may be from Az., but Senator McCain is Republican in name only - and a blight on the GOP.
No, I don't mean that.
I wish we could shut the borders to ALL illegal immigration.
But I know that MOST illegals come here just to improve their lives and I cannot see mistreating them and violating their human rights.
