I think most of us see this as an American issue, not a political issue;however, Obama and Co. see it as a means of consolidating their grip on Latino voters and, in so doing, their grip on power. They will use this issue to paint themselves as the only option for Latinos. We normally don’t do great with Latino voters anyways but we can probably expect to do worse now. having said that, the only states this should really matter in are probably New Mexico and Florida (IMO of course). That just means we need to play a better game in Ohio, Indiana, Virginia, and North Carolina which seems pretty doable if you ask me. We need to see how this issue resonates with the voters of those aforementioned states. That means both the urban and rural voters of those states because I’m sure the two demographics will offer differing opinions to a large extent. We need to play a careful game with this issue, maybe paint it as an Arizona/state’s right issue a little bit.
Subtracting my wife and I we have 21 kids and Grandkids spread all over the globe. Every year we have a family reunion in Orlando but this year we are going to the San Diego area. I already have paid for the house we are staying but this is our last trip there. We had hoped to go back again this year but no chance. We will go to Scottsdale and keep our money here in AZ. I have two words for CA and they are not Happy Birthday.
