Depends on how you define hope. If your hope is the Grassley plan will now pass, that has even less chance of getting 60 votes. If your hope is for no immigration plan being passed then I'd say your odds are pretty good.
So it is better to have a bad bill passed than having nothing at all??
What people are forgetting is that we have an immigration policy in place. It is called the law of the land. People are looking for an immigration bill that will soften existing laws and allow for more immigrants to come into our country. I do not believe that this is a good underlying concept for passing more legislation. Maybe the politicos need to first come to grips as to what their objectives really are and work from there. The problem is that nobody is buying what the democrats and the “centrist” (read that as leftist) Republicans are trying to sell.
