Bush has lost a significant amount of his base supporters, like me, because he is a f-up! He will not swing any Hispanic vote because most Hispanics, who vote, are democrats--- and the repubs are aware of this fact; and they know that the conservative Hispanics, mostly cubans, and their supporters are very very much against Amnesty... in Miami, the cubans are trying to push other Hispanics out... and the Repubs know all of this, and are now trying to garner more black support; because more and more blacks are finally seeing the failure of the Demos.... but, the biggest problem for Repubs... is the lost of it base supporters..... and the sway that Demos might get from this. This is how I see it....

Absolutely, the loss of base support swamps any imagined political gain. Plus it is wrong to reward illegal immigrants.
