The CBS polls, before/after 9-11, mentioned at the bottom of Worldview indicates a 10 point shift.

That reinforces my point. A 10-point shift post 9-11 indicates still a substantial portion of Americans opposing illegal immigration & supporting immigration reform prior to 9-11.

I won't try to argue with you that there is a certain number, maybe substantial.

What I saying is that the numbers, or the significance of the numbers, are being exagerated. I've pointed out several of the ways it is being done.

Polling is polling and we should not buy into for one subject, else we have to buy into it on all subjects. Its the Republic versus a Democracy thing.
