Republicans can't win unless they pass an immigration reform

[JDgator]

How many times did we hear that Republicans will never win another election unless they go forward with immigration reform?

How many times did left wing politicians, reporters, pundits, and consultants get in the face of conservatives and shout that?

Heck, how many times did moderate republicans say that?

And lets look again at the election results.

I think our elected officials have a very clear mandate: stop amnesty at all costs.

Do you make a habit of taking advice from your enemies? In this case, conservatives have enemies in their own party

Not sure what immigration reform laws will change since we don't hold to the laws as they exist currently.

I think the "GOP Can't Win" talk is directed more towards presidential elections. We have seen the last two election cycles that the electoral college leans heavily towards the democrats now. Just by winning California, Illinois and New York, the democrats have 40% of the electoral votes needed to secure the presidency. (hence the reason why Obama is so bent on amnesty - they know if they flip Texas, it is game, set, match for the GOP in presidential elections).

Fl and OH have been blue the last two elections...decidedly so. How are they becoming more conservative?

[JDgator]

There is a difference between voter turnout and party affiliation. Florida is a mostly a red state. I think alot of likely republican voters stayed home because neither candidate was conservative enough. Anyway, I'd rather have a weak democratic president in office and republican control of congress than the other way around.
