Immigration bomb is dud
Mitt Romney, Mike Huckabee and Fred Thompson weren’t the first Republicans to have the same fantasy, and they won’t be the last.
They looked at the polling on Republican attitudes toward immigration and thought they saw a nuclear weapon – the bomb that would alone deliver the electoral prize they sought. The outcome last week in Florida proves just how wrong they were. Romney tried to detonate the bomb, and it turned out to be a dud.
The candidates were not alone, of course. That illegal immigration would be this cycle’s GOP wedge issue has been conventional wisdom since the campaign began. “*
