Besides turning a generation or two of Hispanic voters to the Democratic party, like they drove blacks to the Democrats 40 plus years ago by embracing the racist "Southern Strategy", this issue is pitting the racists and xenophobes against the big money and big business interests...with the money winning for now, but it will be at a price.
While people here may not believe it, but booooshie became a lame duck the day the Democrats took control of the House...as he lost his rubber stamp congress and no longer could push through the gravy train of no-bid contracts and other backdoor bills that he previously did. For example, those coveted tax cuts still aren't permanent...and without a vote, they will sunset in 2010...look for it to be an issue in the future, but a lost opportunity for the bushbots who had the vote to make it permanent last year but thought they could hold it off until now. Too late.
booooshie boy is far from impotent...he still holds all the cards in setting the agenda and operates outside the law. His mighty Wurlitzer still can crank up the noise and his henchmen are still inside our government putting political cronies above public service and fleecing the treasury. But this is a lot better than what was.
The endgame here is Repugnicans know how unpopular booooosh has become...especially in "purple" and blue areas and, as I predicted, are attempting to run away from all the bad crap and ignore booooshie (except when it come to taking money) in public and fear his ass in private. Democrats can't let these scumbags walk away from the damage they either participated in or abetted with their votes...while they pretend to disavow boooshie, his ugly war, screwed up economy and corrupt regime...we must work to keep reminding all that the problems were part and parcel of Repugnican "policies"...every single problem!!!
