Exactly. Without illegal immigration as an issue, Tancredo is just a fat, round face in a GOP crowd.
No bill will be death for the Republicans in November. Tom Davis has said that, and so have others.
If the Senate had any interest in HR 4437, it would have taken it up a month ago.
Yep.
"No bill will be death for the Republicans in November. Tom Davis has said that, and so have others."
I do not know a single republican, and darned few independents, who are clammering for an immigration bill. I do know a LOT of folk who are demanding border control.
I submit that your reading of the public is a bit off. If the Amnesty and Cheap Labor bill passes, we lose the House for sure and perhaps the Senate. I would say both for sure but too many senators are not up for election this year so they can pander to the wine and cheese cheap labor wing of the republican party, all 5% of it.
