“given the electoral pressure from Latinos that the GOP leadership will be feeling”

B.S.. Latino’s that favor amnesty are not going to vote for Republicans no matter what they do. This is nothing but a shrill attempt to play right into the DemonRATs playbook.
Send the illegals packing and the same for any whiners that are protecting them. They are criminals that have thumbed their noses at our laws and continue to do so.

Factoring work ethic, taxation, Christianity, and adjustments in labor costs, the political outcome may wash out to a split possibly favoring Republicans.

So Romney may get the nomination and win the Presidency? He won't be the President of the United States. President of something, maybe, but it will not be America. Amnesty finishes us.

So now that another of Romney's behind-the-scenes treacheries has become public, how long do you think it will be before Mitt comes out with a full press release denying any attempt to push forward an amnesty deal?

This guy has become the king of proxy treacheries. He's like a mob boss from a TV show who is always up to something nefarious, but works through proxies so carefully that he thinks he always has plausible deniability.

Sorry, Mitt, we're not buying your Bart Simpson-esque “I didn't do it, you can't prove I had anything to do with it” crap. You play dirty, you're not the 1100 issue convert you pretend to be, and we're not stupid.

Funny how reputably smart people are so stupid and illogical. If illegals get to vote, the nation is finished. No need to explain.

If the dims grant amnesty to 30+million undocumented democrats, the GOP is finished forever. How can they get so stupid once they go to the District of Corruption?

Any fallout over this for him, or no biggie?

In theory, a biggie. In actual practice, Myth Romney is DOA with the base of the party.

Most Latinos are Catholics, many in the liberation theology vain. Those will vote leftist.

Also, Latin America has a tradition of "caudilloism". They are far more likely to vote for a big-government strongman-type politician (Obama, Chavez) than a rugged individualist-type politician (Reagan).

Hispanics already vote something like 65%-35% in favor of Dems. What makes you think the current crop of illegals would vote any differently?

The haughty snake, Willard Myth Romney:
"A little self examination is in order for you Republicans.
You may want to ask yourself “if I had spent my time promoting and serving
Obama and Mitt Romney, could not I have garnered more support
of both Obama and Mitt Romney now?


“Romney praises Obama again
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney praised President Obama
at a GOP fundraising dinner Wednesday ..
"I also think it's important for us to nod to the president when he's right," Romney said....
Romney, who spoke at a dinner for the National Republican Senatorial Committee,
said he's pleased with the president's plans to "finish the job" in Iraq and Afghanistan
-- lines that drew applause from the partisan audience. He also applauded the president
for standing up to the auto industry.
"I hope he continues to be tough ....The former businessman even offered faint praise for
Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, saying that after a series of initial missteps,
"I think he's finally getting close to the right answer."

I don’t think amnesty will ‘finish’ the Country. It’s a sickening proposition, however - laws and sovereignty traded for votes - it’s a form of betrayal in my opinion.

I’m only guessing about Romney’s motives.

Romney foisted RomneyCARE on Massachusetts to
coverup his "rape" of companies at BAIN and his bringing
millions of illegals into Massachsetts to remove
English is the first language in most cities.

"According to the Globe, the landscaping company's owner, Ricardo Saenz,
. "said he met Romney through the Mormon Church and said Romney has used his company's services for a decade."
. The Globe added that "Saenz said Romney never asked him if his workers are legal immigrants."
. Noorani also accused Romney of hypocrisy in the wake of a Boston Globe report
. last week that illegal immigrants worked on the crew that manicured the grounds of his mansion in Belmont.
. "His family directly benefited from the labor of undocumented immigrants," Noorani said."

"More immigrant woes for Romney"
. "Romney's account differs from that of landscape company owner Ricardo Saenz,
. who said that Romney didn't press the issue
of whether his workers were in the country illegally."

.

"That Colombian born employer says that Romney never brought it up
. during the 11 year relationship that included two nationally publicized
. exposes of the Romney scandal and his sons involvement.
. It never came up even during the years that Romney was Governor of the state,
. the gang of Guatemalan illegals that Romney only spoke Spanish to
. never aroused his suspicions evidently."

.

Another day at the Romney Illegal Alien Sanctuary. [/s]

>> What makes you think the current crop of illegals would vote any differently?

I’m not saying those factors are absolute.

Taxation and labor costs would go into effect immediately. This could translate to a significant drop in income for illegals, greater competition from the original labor base, and fewer dollars for export. Combined with national resentment towards implementing amnesty, I don’t see this being a big win for Democrats. But, it might take some time to settle out. That’s why I think Romney would rather see it happen sooner than later. Also, Obama could be calculating that it’s better to wait on amnesty to maximize 2012 instead of 2010.

I’m not committed to this line of reasoning. Just some speculation based on the article.

I wish Romney would just go away......

I wish Palin would just go away.......

I wish Huckabee would just go away...

We NEED another choice. A LEADER! Of course, I have no idea who that could be at this point. I’ll post a help wanted ad in USA Today, looking for a ‘dark horse’.
