Bet it's not.

HOW MUCH????

YOU NAME IT AND WE'LL LET SOMEONE HOLD IT.

IN FACT, I'LL GIVE YOU 10 - 1 ODDS.

If those are real Blue Dogs who just got elected...shamnesty will be halted FAST.

Blue Dogs???

When Nacy says jump or roll over, those "blue dogs" will turn into "lap dogs" faster, than you can say ALPO!!!

You think Nancy is going to run over ALL those newly elected Dems...I don't think so. She is NOT officially Speaker yet. They can wipe her out power-wise if they so choose. There are 44 of them according to a post in here last night. What if they prefer a less pushy, male Speaker? She doesn't get it just because of seniority.

I know, she got them there, now they have to obey. (Maybe I am being HIGHLY optimistic)

IF there was someone smart in the Republican hierarchy,
they'd keep track of how many of these "blue dogs" ran with an
anti-illegal immigrant plank during the election...
then flip and vote for straight amnesty in the next year.

I think I know of one:
Claire McCaskill (D, MO) ran as "tougher than Talent" on immigration
issues. And sadly, Talent didn't run any ads that called her on it.

Oh, well, what's the point of even thinking about this?
Amnesty IS a done deal as of Nov. 8.
