OK.....I'm having a "black helicopter" moment here....but could it be possible that GWB put forth the idea of comprehensive immigration reform to derail the dems?

1. He chose to do this in his 2nd term....no chance of killing his own re-election chances

2. He knew the Dems would back it and be it's most vocal advocates.

    You know it's really a nonpartisan issue right?

    I think not but that's because I believe a pair of things that I don't have the evidence to prove.
     
    1. GW is an idiot.
    2. Big bussiness ultimately benefits more from illegals than the common man.
    3. GW is an idiot.
     
    That aid 2/3s of my opinion would be wrong if your theory were true.

    the hispanic population is a large and growing voting block. Having the dems for this helps them in the long run and hurts the republicans. Also, other repubs supported it, like mccain

    True, but not all hispanics support illegal immigration....especially the ones who worked to get here the right way.....most hispanics are also catholic....most are conservative in nature.....I don't see that playing into the dems favor

    you're right, it's a very weird situation. They are generally conservative on social issues, but they also see the republicans as generally racist.

    I don't know I would argue that blacks tend to be socially conservative as well.  Highly religious and the such but they generally vote Democrat.
     
    Never underestimate the power of a single grand gesture.
