I believe more people of the "good sized contingent on Free Republic" are disappointed with Bush's troubling immigration policies than any other issue.
And I don't think that's strictly a forum phenomenom. For example, my brother, sister, and father are all Republicans, know nothing about FR, and have expressed exasperation with Bush's stance on Illegals and Mexico... and they didn't get it from me.
I've heard others out of this loop with the same concern.
