But Neeka...not voting is worse than selling your vote. It doesn't accomplish anything. It is giving in to the lowest common denominator....It would allow people like Jim McDermott to win with ease.

But I do agree....the whole situation is making me pretty upset as well.

As the leadership loses its constituency, as Bush and Rove are on this issue, other Republicans, like Trancadero, will rush in to take the other side

they're all whores for votes

the problem is the elites have the money. But they don't have the votes.

When a viable anti-illegal immigration candidate appears, he'll be smeared as a demagogue populist and marginalized every way possible. The hue and cry from the MSM should be deafening.

I don't know how it'll play out. Still too early in the game. Looks like they're going to table it till after the mid-terms, but they're just going to have an increasingly sullen base.

We'll know the affect when we look at voted turnout in the mid-terms.

Sure would like to hear other opinions?
