TANCREDO TO WITHDRAW FROM GOP RACE TOMORROW
December 19, 2007 by Bradley Maged.
According to denverpost.com: “Sources close to the Tancredo campaign confirmed this afternoon that the Littleton Republican intends to officially announce his exit from the race at a Thursday press conference in Des Moines, Iowa.”
I think that Tancredo simply ran to make immigration a campaign issue rather than to win the nomination, and he succeeded. However, it remains to be seem how the remaining candidates who concentrate on immigration will fare when it comes to the general election. My guess is that they would be best to not try to “out-Tancredo Tancredo.”
On a related note, Tancredo also recently announced that he will not be running to keep his seat in the House.

PRIESTS SEEK IMMIGRATION REFORM
December 19, 2007 by Bradley Maged.
According to an article on chicagotribune.com: “Responding to what they perceive as anti-immigrant rhetoric from presidential candidates, dozens of Roman Catholic priests Tuesday used the religious message of Advent to express support for immigrants and call for legislative reform.”
Sounds familiar. The same groups will continue coming out in favor of immigration reform because our current system is dysfunctional. However, no positive changes will occur until 2009, when the political heat has subsided. The quality of any changes will depend more on who gets voted into Congress than who becomes President.
