The Republicans are screwed
As usual, they are on the wrong side of history on this issue. While some Republicans are starting to take a more moderate opinion on immigration reform, a large percentage are falling back on the anti-immigrant rhetoric they have been told for the last 30 years
It is hard to unring a bell
How do you suddenly accept a population that you have been taught to hate for 30 years?
The voting patterns of a generation of Hispanics is being established now. They hear the rhetoric coming from rightwing radio, they read what conservative posters spew on this board and hundreds of boards like it. They remember what politicians have said and the punative legislation they have passed
Republicans have missed the boat
Its just kinda cool that their racebating to win elections is finnally coming back to haunt them.
All my life their race bating has won them elections much to my distain.
I have to admitt Im really going to enjoy watching their evil eat them alive as a party
Some key Republican leaders and rightwing hate radio (Rush and Hannity) are starting to moderate their former extremist positions on immigration
Do they really think that Hispanics will develop amnesia over the hate that has been spewed for 30 years?
