But when Americans get inside the voting booth, they probably will think the envisioned Democratic remedy is worse than the current perceived Republican disease.

The money quote. The R's could very well lose over immigration, but not on Iraq or gas prices (this last one is so ridiculous I can't believe he brought it up; anyone with a brain knows it's the market, not Bush).

That said, however, the dems are even worse on immigration than the R's (discounting the House. They seem to have their sanity about them and they are doing the Senate R's and Bush a big favor, even if they don't know it yet). Dem control would be a nightmare at this juncture of history.

That said, I will vote against any Senator or rep that supported the Senate amnesty bill. I will vote for those that didn't. This might mean the R's lose control of the senate, but the House is more important, IMO. That's where all the spending legislation starts.

Unfortunately, the Dems count on people without brains to vote.

That was true only until the Supreme Court arrogated to itself the power to define what is Constitutional and just! IMHO, if you want a living Constitution, more decisions like Kelo, Lawrence, decisions citing foreign juris prudence and a new interpretation of the Second Amendment, just ignore the importance of the Senate.

Hey, people get frustrated and vote for candidates over all sorts of things. Having a vote doesn't mean you have a brain, or we wouldn't have to deal with Cynthia McKinney.
