WSJ just wants cheap labor for the companies, these are the Rockefeller wing of the party.

They disregard or are ignorant that the GOP took control because of the larger social conservative wing of the party.
They feel it's their country club republicans who are the driving force of the GOP,
Next year, they are in for a rude awakening when a democratic controlled congress starts to tax the heck out of them. And the social conservatives don't back this 3% of the population.

The Republicans are now using on conservatives the old tired method usually used by liberals. They are insulting our core beliefs in hope of shaming us into submission. I grew up in Seattle and dealt with this stuff for years, didn't work then and it wont work now. To purposefully muddy the waters between legal and illegal is frankly a cowards way of framing his losing argument. We are not against immigration, just illegal immigration and that point needs to be hammered home by those on our side. Its sad to say but the republicans are making a huge mistake if they are trying to get re elected. I may not vote democrat ever, but not voting at all is a serious consideration, or maybe just voting at the local level and for my Congressman.

Why does everyone think it is the House that is going to be hurt, most of the Republican Congress members have gone on record as supporting deportation.

It is the Senate that may lose a few seats, because they are not listening, not the House.

Hard to argue with that proposition.

The Journal is nothing if not consistent.
