9. Too late.Dems and libs snatch defeat from the jaws of victory
All dems and libs had to do was find SOME RESPONSIBLE position short of branding illegal immigrants or cutting off fingers and we could have beat the republicans like drums.

Instead, the tiny vocal minority advocates completely open borders and equating anyone who gave and sacrificed for this country with anybody who just wants to be here for whatever reason. It's crazy enough and unpopular enough in itself, but also has a dollop of hypocrisy and racism because they probably only mean Mexicans. It's tough to tell: the supposed open borders advocates get all evasive when the concept of immigrating Guatemalans and Asians and Bulgarians is brought up.

The Immigration issue has turned against democrats.
