myfoxny.com WSJ.COM / NEWSCORE - A top adviser to Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney on Sunday suggested an executive order by President Barack Obama that would allow some young people who are illegally in the US to stay and obtain working papers could be repealed if Romney were elected. "Every executive action that President Obama has taken will be subject to review," Romney senior adviser Ed Gillespie said Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union." There are "legitimate questions about the legality of it," Gillespie said of the executive order on immigration, which would ban the deportation of certain children and young adults of illegal immigrants. Romney said in a speech on Thursday that he would "replace and supersede the president's temporary measure" with his own long-term solution on immigration. Gillespie, however, side-stepped questions about whether the executive order, which also establishes a process for some illegal immigrants under age 30 to obtain temporary work visas, would be rescinded immediately. On NBC's "Meet the Press," Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), who had been working on legislation addressing the status of the children of illegal immigrants, accused Obama of "injecting election year politics into an issue that will never be solved as long as it's a political one." Immigration policy has been in the political spotlight since Obama issued his executive order and as the Supreme Court is set to announce a decision this week on the legality of Arizona's immigration law. The issue has become touchy for Republicans. The Romney campaign had to respond to rumors among Latino Republicans this week that the campaign had eliminated Rubio as a vice-presidential candidate, and Romney himself later said that the senator is being thoroughly vetted as a running mate. Rubio has taken a middle position on Arizona's tough immigration law, saying the state had the right to pass the measure, but that he does not think it should be a model for the nation. Democrats have played down the impact of the potential addition of Rubio to the Republican ticket. "I think historically vice presidential selections give you little bit of a bump -- but they don't give you much else," Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa said on CBS' "Face the Nation."
