The Biggest Losers In Obama's Amnesty Program: DEMOCRATS!

Oregon is still a blue state and despite the recent WAVE election they actually expanded their Democratic majority in the legislature. This might be the only state that is getting bluer.

Yet, the voters used the power of referendum two weeks ago to cancel driver's license for illegal immigrants (the AP slips and calls them "people who are in the United States illegally." Weren't these migrants or undocumented workers or people who live in the shadows?).  The measure passed 66-34!

Is there an expert in the house? Can we get Halperin and Heilemann on the line to explain the intricacies of the president's upcoming amnesty announcement and its impact on the Democratic Party in 2016? Can we get Rasmussen to conduct a poll for us? They only missed the Kansas Senate race by 16 points. They only missed the governor's race by 14 points.  Where is Steve Schmidt when we need him?

Yahoo News:

"The Oregon measure tells you these measures are not easy or simple," said Muzaffar Chishti of the Migration Policy Institute. "The political cost may be significant, even in blue states."

The state law had seemed to be popular. It easily passed last year with bipartisan support in the Democratic-controlled Legislature and was signed Democratic Gov. John Kitzhaber, who was re-elected Nov. 4.

Opponents barely gathered enough signatures to put the repeal question on the ballot. Immigrant rights groups outspent their opponents 10-1.

Still, the measure failed in every county but the state's most liberal one, Multnomah, home to Portland. Even there it trailed significantly behind other Democratic candidates and causes.
