Once again this falls into the Bizzaro-world of American politics.
The issue of illegal immigration has been given short shrift not only by this administration, but by previous Republican presidents who have been content to fiddle while Rome burns. Thus giving an "in" to a crass political operative whose own husband, as POTUS, gave it as much attention as Bush41 and the venerable Ronald Reagan, in addition to Jimmah Carter and Gerald Ford, as well as Richard Nixon, LBJ and JFK. The only sane policy in 60 years has been the "bracero" program of DD Eisenhower.
Ten millions illegal Mexicans, 20% of the Mexican population, are said to be in the United States, sucking up social services, clogging hospital emergency rooms, taxing schools and teachers already hampered with un-necessary and unfunded mandates from self serving and education illiterate politicians. Plus what about the Mexican gang problems in cities across America?
Republicans across the board are unwilling to deal with this undeclared invasion of America, and this issue is being handed to Hillary Clinton on a silver platter.
Wake up America, and contact your Senators and Congressmen, tell them go get off their a$$es and protect America's borders. Especially before Hillary Clinton rides this issue into the White House.

The GOP keeps it's head in the sand at it's own peril.
This is a natural marriage for the dems, they are the party of labor after all.
Sanford/Tancredo in 2008!
Until then, we need to put pressure on Congress and the Bush administration to crack down. There are at least a few sane Republican Senators and Congressmen on this issue (Tancredo, Inhofe for example) and we must also pressure them to swing others to the right side of this issue.
