MICKEY KAUS: “At the non-elite end of the political hierarchy, of course, the people marching in the streets for amnesty aren’t necessarily calibrating its prospects. They want it and they are trying to make it a reality. Fair enough. But at some point maybe Democrats should stop leading them on and start telling them the truth: It’s not going to happen anytime soon.”

Or, on the other hand, they might see immigration amnesty as an electoral firewall for the Democrats.
