@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 -
@ThePlumLineGS@DavidMDrucker What border security to they get by passing nothing? What political gain? Don't they stand to lose both?
