Amnesty is a deal-breaker for conservatives. Period.
Depends. He has already backtracked on it. As far as I can tell, he is more palatable than Bush, Christie, Clinton, or Biden and the record proves he is one of the more all around conservative senators. Not my first choice, but depending on how the campaign does, I might be willing to accept it if I have to. We made the mistake of trashing conservatives to pimp our preferred conservatives the last couple of times and wound up with McCain and Romney. All I am saying is we can and have done worse.
