<Securing the border isn't merely a right wing obsession. The vast majority of Americans want it. He offended 75% of voters yesterday.

His fan base is a tiny minority.>

Even his fans do not believe the border is substantively more secure. Usually they will parrot even the most absurd lies to defend their positions.

This is what I got out of two of the looniest.

"It probably is "more secure than ever", but when you consider how ineffectual it was under Bush, then most anything is an improvement, isn't it..."

and from a lefty from AZ.

"border security has improved in Arizona (don't know about anywhere else), but it is so far from actually being secure that it is pretty meaningless. If 100 is good, and 0 is bad, moving from 10 to 15 really isn't all that great."

Of course they will not admit it, but I think they know that even they were insulted. Their strongest principal seems to be hating Bush and every thing republican.
