THE LIKELIHOOD OF COMPREHENSIVE IMMIGRATION REFORM IN 2009

According to an article on www.ocregister.com: “Up to now, immigration was an issue that candidates didn’t believe would sway an election. But this year, at least on the Republican side – despite the Iraq war, a seesawing stock market and health care costs going out of sight – immigration will likely figure into the mix.”

I tend to agree that the odds of CIR becoming a reality after the elections will probably have more to do with how the congressional races play out than who is elected President. Should be interesting.
