Wrong. Mitt above all is a political opportunist, and if he thought his chances of winning the '12 GOP nomination would be increased by taking a hardline anti-amnesty approach, that's precisely what he'd do. But as I correctly pointed out, he's misinterpreting the reason the GOP got its butt kicked in the last two elections, and is proceeding (with his pro-amnesty stance) accordingly. Mitt's personal stance on the issue has nothing to do with it -- he'll go whichever way he thinks the currently political wind is blowing.

I think Mitt, and the elites want the illegals, and more of them.

It puts downward pressure on their business cost, i.e., labor.

They don’t labor for a living, so its no skin off their backs.

They don’t live in working class, low welfare towns, so they don’t pick up the school, crime, costs.

Mitt is an opportunist and his whole goal in life is to be the first Mormon President.
