I don’t care if it was a trap or not. America got to see what politians wanted to sell this country out. Now we know, which is a good thing.

[Constitution1st]

My consolation is that Dick Morris has never been right about anything.

[Lancey Howard]

Did fifteen Democrats vote to kill the immigration bill to assure its defeat and guarantee that the Latino vote would go Democrat in the 2008 election?

Huh??? Did I miss the part where the Latino vote has previously gone Republican?

Dick “Toe Sucker” Morris is all about promoting Dick “Toe Sucker” Morris. He’ll have a new theory in about 10 seconds. And then will be on fox trying to sell another lame book.

No, because we can’t lose Florida over this. Cubans in South Florida won’t be going with the Democrat, and we actuaally don’t need to win New Mexico. New Mexico is actually the only loss I see from this, and I think this could boost our standing in voter rich union states, like Michigan, that view immigration entirely from a class basis.

I also think this could help us in Pennsylvania. Not so much in Mexican neighborhoods, but once again, amongst labor unions. I think there is going to be rank-and-file labor defection next year, the way there was for Reagan both times. I’ll gladly trade New Mexico for Michigan any day.

This entire issue is a democratic trap. It’s a reality that all of those Latinos will be voters eventually, and democratic voters they will be. By killing the bill, the republican party and conservative movement will get a slower death, rather than a fast one. I’m afraid the whole country will be just like California within the next 10 years and nothing is going to stop it.

In motor voter states, they've already got the illegal immigrant vote (which is primarily latino). I can't imagine any other vote going to the democRATS that isn't there already (deadbeats, lazy people, and a few environazis).

[Soul Seeker]

Well, I would give Dick credit if not for three reasons.

1) A part of him believes they are clever, even if he says he dismisses it.

2) Hispanics already vote in large numbers for Dems.

3) 80% of the country hated that bill, and many of them were the Reagan Dems that gave Republicans AND Democrats majorities!

What is it about these people that leads them to cast aside the most impotant political constituency that has actually proven over and over again they have the ability to make or break majorities? Normal, blue collar, many union working, faith based hard working citizens. Yet both parties are obsessed with a couple extra points from minorities.

I mean, sure, no one should ignore bringing different demogrphics to their side, but if I were a pol, not a conservative or liberal, just a politician I’d plant my campaign flat down on the center of a Reagan Democrat to start with.

[Barnacle]

Was it a set up all along? No

See tag line.

If the Republicans put new blood in the races and talk about lowering taxes for the middle and lower class, education for unemployed, bringing back jobs to America, closing the borders, employer sanctions, culture of life issues, they will take the majority of the Republicans and lots of moderate Democrats and independents. They also need to get our military out of Irag and most of the rest of the world and give Tax CREDITS for health care premiums, keep the government out of health care

It is their last chance. Get rid of the Cheneys, the Martinezes, the Guiliannis, the Bushs, the Chertoffs, McCain and on and on and on.

Rebuild America.

Did fifteen Democrats vote to kill the immigration bill to assure its defeat and guarantee that the Latino vote would go Democrat in the 2008 election?...well let's see - if fifteen Democrats voting to kill the bill is what did it in, wouldn't the blame fall on the the Democrats and the votes go the the Republicans? - your analysis is too deep for me, Dick.......

[Rosemont]

So is Morris basically saying that the only way to get the Latino vote is to pander to them by granting amnesty to illegal aliens?

[Nonstatist]

Why would the Dems vote against it unless thats what they wanted their constituents to think that was their position? Once the bill was dead , would they want to vote on the wrong side just to be Machiavellian, without regard to their voters???

Morris is such an idiot and is wrong so often, it makes you wonder how he could possibly help get anyone elected.
