Tricky issue of immigration played down – Colorado senate race

Calling America a country perfectly “capable of multitasking,” Republican Senate candidate Bob Schaffer said the U.S. ought to be pursuing a guest- worker program at the same time it fortifies its borders.

On that point at least, he’s more moderate than the party’s likely presidential nominee, John McCain — who now insists on an “enforcement first” approach — and even his Democratic opponent, Mark Udall, a signal that the GOP is unlikely to make immigration a wedge issue in this year’s most important statewide race.

Udall supported an immigration-reform effort that died in Congress last year and included both a guest-worker program and a path to citizenship for many of the estimated 12 million illegal immigrants living in the United States.”*
