No rational party planner would touch your DACA, especially after midterm elections with the national to look forward to.

The Great Sin of DACA was in that it was used to call a Republican bluff during election year when it mattered the most. It was no coincidence that the administration waited to announce it six months leading to the election, and at a time when Rubio was touting his own nonexistent Dream-act lite bill to attract Latino and other swing-group voters.

DACA has become the baseline, something that is taken for granted among Latino voters more significantly. To take it away now would be tantamount to political suicide.

Sure, they might vote now and again to defund DACA, but only to posture to there base and with the expectation that it would go the way of most other votes in this vein - to legislative oblivion.

I just don't see it.
