Thread: Reid: Immigration After Nov. Elections

I figured this sneak would try to pull this.

Reid rejects energy bill compromise

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid rejected a proposal from supporters of a stalled Senate energy bill that would move immigration reform through the regular committee process on a priority basis and allow the energy bill to move forward on the Senate floor.

Under the proposal, action on immigration would be scheduled for November after the midterm elections – a delay that even some Democrats would welcome.

“Such an idea might have been floated by someone, but as far as I can tell it’s a non-starter,â€

Any incumbent who speaks against the AZ law will be extremely vulnerable in November. I hope every single amnesty lover gets voted out. I also hope every state passes their own SB1070. After all, it's already a federal law, right?

Still, Reid continued to fuel the squabble by accusing Graham of insisting on delayed action on immigration reform in hopes of protecting his close Republican ally, Sen. John McCain, who is facing a tough primary battle in Arizona.

So what's the deal? Does he think if McCain gets re-elected then his buddy, Graham, will more likely be on board and McCain will flip back AGAIN to join him?

In another thread Graham said this wouldn't come up until probably 2012.

So which is it? Nov or 2012? Man, these people are all over the place.
