It's all Bush's fault.
That goes without saying.
But they are capable of distinguishing between policies they agree with, and policies they do not. By and large they do not agree with Bush's open borders amnesty approach to solving the problem.
By being the point man for the administration disasterous and misguided attempts to remedy the illegal immigration problem by encouraging even more illegal immigration, Cannon has painted a big red X on his back in the Third Congressional District. He has been humiliated by being forced into a primary and he came whisker close to losing at convention to a political neophyte.
If he wins tonight, his opposition will simply regroup and go right back on the offensive tomorrow. If he doesn't lose tonight I predict he will lose at convention in 2008.
He deserves to lose. He got arrogant and thought he was smarter than the people he was elected to represent. Too bad, so sad.
