Don't think so. Fred and Mitt, while far less than entusiastic than Duncan Hunter and Tom Tancredo about enforcing the borders and not giving this country away to illegal aliens, at least did not actively support and encourage the open borders lobby.

I could vote for either Fred and Mitt without a clothespin on my nose. I couldn't vote for the Huckster even with a clothespin on my nose.

The Ball Street Journal's position on illegal aliens is well known: keep importing people from the third world so the middle class doesn't get too uppidy about serving the ruling class and is forced to subsidize cheap labor for their betters . . . and compete with it.

To clearify a little here. Tank and Hunter - while talking a lot about the issue - have not had much opportunity to act on the issue. Mitt, on the other hand, vetoed instate tuition for illegals and opposed drivers licenses - making it practically impossible for them to become available in MA. He also ordered the state police to co-operate in deporting illegals.

While he initially made some favorable statements about the direction of the immigration reform bill, he has always favored a secure-the-border first policy and has affirmed that there will be zero amnesty under his adminstration.
