@DavidMDrucker@conncarroll They stay right where they are until E-Verify/Fence/Visa system survive ACLU attack. Then legalized-that so bad? -
@kausmickey@conncarroll Politically, I don't think that's bad if it's delivered in vane of: I'm going to do x, y & z and then legalize. -
@DavidMDrucker@conncarroll We agree! Don't know why GOPs haven't tried this formula (eg Whitman in CA). -
@kausmickey@conncarroll Because been dangerous to say they support legalization at all - ever... -
@DavidMDrucker@conncarroll Hard 2 see that actual "Enforcement 1st/Legal 2d" cldn't appeal 2 *enough* of base. Of course some will oppose -
@kausmickey@conncarroll It's doable. just meant it's not a slam dunk. -
@DavidMDrucker@conncarroll agree. The GOP equivalent of Bill Clinton could sell it. -

@kausmickey@conncarroll Which is why they'll go back to opposing it if the R actually wins. -
@DavidMDrucker@conncarroll Who will oppose it? Activists? Of course they will oppose--that's their business. But Hispanic voters? -
@kausmickey Depends on how they perceive party as a whole. But prez nom supporting this could presumably help. -
@DavidMDrucker And depends on how sold--emphasis on enforcmnt not civil rights/we-love-illegals/tide-o-history/need lanscapers/have-a-heart
