Re: McCain says Arizona, Hispanic vote ‘up for grabs’

My point is a Republican that supports immigration reform is a thousand times more valuable than a Democrat who does, because he can garner a bigger coalition to follow him

I agree 100%. I don't understand why when a republican changes his/her mind in our favor most people get upset. We really need to create a momentum among repubublicans. WE BADLY NEED THEIR SUPPORT. whether we like it or not. THIS IS ABOUT POLITICS not about thrue love.

Does this mean he believes in a compromise NOW?!

I hope so! I'm glad he recognizes that Obama failed to free the Latino kids as he promised. I hope he knows that if the Republicans don't do something about this, the Hispanic vote will never forgive them. They'll be doomed because of the injustice that they themselves caused.

No, now he wants to be on our side now that the Latino vote is up for grabs. If Obama wins, I am quite sure that this cynical little Republican will go back to secure-the-border-first rhetoric.

Sorry guys. I am just really bitter toward Republicans. I cannot stand politicans like him. They play politics and at the same time disregard the fact that they are screwing with human lives.

whys everyone mad at mccain he's probably been the most reasonable voice in his party for a really long time, compare that to the nominees this year, but even worse, what has obama even done? we cant give that guy credit for shit, he had all of congress to pass whatever he wanted and what did he do? i remember when he got voted into office some posters appeared of obama painted as the joker and look how hes turned out,

atleast the last republican in office did make a real effort to get something passed not like this guy, a day before congress closed trying to rush it in there, fuck those democrats, and oh yea, it could of still passed if those remaining dems would of sided with their party, theyve done it for other things before and they aint shit vs their party and the president, so just let that settle in on how serious the dems are, nothings getting done cuz repubs dont care, but if more ppl start talking like mccain, u can bet sure as hell the dems would shit their pants and get something passed but right now they just take hispanics and all minorities for granted

As I can recall, McCain said after he lost the Presidential election in 2008 that (and I quote) "I WILL NOT SUPPORT ANY IMMIGRATION REFORM THAT REWARDS LAWBREAKERS." Look all I'm saying is I don't trust anything that comes out of any Republicans mouth cause like a dirty diaper, they are full of shit. But at the same time, now that he has realized that the Latino votes is up for grabs in 2012, he should be reaching across the aisle and work with Democrats to at least pass the DA. Last time I checked, actions speak louder then words. But I think him coming out and having the audacity to use the word humane on the issue of immigration is just only cause he wants a Republican in the White House and Obama to be a one term President. If that happens, which it won't because so far Obama has already raised $90M for his re-election, the Republicans will go back on their word. I didn't trust McCain in 2008 and sure don't trust his ass now. Obama for 2012. OCCUPY DREAMERS....OCCUPY DREAMERS....OCCUPY DREAMERS....SPREAD THE WORD....OCCUPY DREAMERS!

Well well it looks like God all powerful is doing some work. !:)

LINDSAY GRAHAM SAYS Hiiiiiiiii. Whatever happened to this guy? He seemed like the one person who could bring in GOP support. I definitely favor him over this FART of a Senator McCain.
