Dear reporters: By credulously accepting Boehner's claims about Hastert Rule on immigration, you're letting him off hook.
@ThePlumLineGS Skepticism I'm fine w/, although I don't think it's warranted in this case.

@DavidMDrucker If enough Rs privately want reform to pass it will pass. If they don't, it won't. Let's not claim to know outcome now.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@DavidMDrucker What would be great is some reporting from GOP-connected reporters on what Rs *privately* want. -
@ThePlumLineGS Privately want bill-but not 1 that splits party,hurts in 2014 & dilutes any political gain they might get frm reform -
@DavidMDrucker But the benefit is simply putting it aside as an issue that is preventing Latinos from even giving GOP a first look. -
@ThePlumLineGS Right, but if you get the look from Latinos & lose your base, you've gained nothing. This needs to be about gain. -
@DavidMDrucker Serious question: If House Rs pass nothing, or conference bill not backed by majority, there is ZERO chance of House vote? -
@ThePlumLineGS Exactly. That's my best reporting & it makes common sense to me. Here's my latest from this a.m.: http://washingtonexaminer.com/immigration-reform-faces-much-tougher-path-in-gop-house/article/2532396 … -
@DavidMDrucker Okay, will look. To be clear, not predicting one way or other. I just think Boehner's claims need to be approached w/caution - 1 more reply
