Besides, the majority of Americans support a program to legalize illegals and a majority supports a guest worker program, so the only way this will lose elections for the GOP is if the House blows it by pandering to xenophobes. Produce the polls that back that statement. The ones I've seen are just the opposite. "If a Mexican army with millions of soldiers invaded the United States, what would your response be?" When that question is relevant, I'll answer it. Well, it's happened, fella. You just refuse to recognize it. It is becoming more and more popular among the Mexicans and Hispanics in the American Southwest to claim that land is part of Mexico. The day is coming when you will either fight (again) to keep it or give it to them. Remember that billboard the LA radio station put up that said "Welcome to Los Angeles, Mexico"? You been to SoCal recently? They weren't kidding. "You want to lose to the Dems in '06 and '08? You've found the way." No, the dems would never even try to solve this problem. Big labor wouldn't let them. BigLabordoesn't matter. What does matter is all those disgusted Republicans who don't go to the polls or vote 3rd party because what used to be their party deserted them. You can see this already in the US house. And why wouldn't Big Labor let them? UFW would make a good addition to the dying AFL-CIO.
