Democrats Panicked Vulnerable Fearing Obama Amnesty Action

Republicans need 6 pickups to reclaim Senate majority Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON D.C. The only conceivable explanation for the president to take such an unprecedented and drastic action would be that he has already conceded the Democrats Senate majority said National Republican Senatorial Committee spokesman Brad Dayspring. Executive amnesty would be the political equivalent of nuclear explosion for Democratic candidates like Mary Landrieu (D-La.) Kay Hagan (D-N.C.) Mark Pryor (D-Ark.) and Jeanne Shaheen. Panicked Democrats locked in tight mid-term races as the party tries desperately to hold onto control of the Senate fear President Obamas anticipated executive amnesty for about 5 million illegal immigrants may doom their re-election campaigns.

Voters are on the other side of Obama especially when it comes to amnesty said Washington-based Republican strategist Ron Bonjean. Should Obama move forward with an Executive Order before the November election it would be obvious that he cares more about his long-term legacy than the interests of his Democratic colleagues.

New Hampshire U.S. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen who has seen her double-digit lead in the polls evaporate into a virtual dead heat with former Bay State U.S. Sen. Scott Brown said any such move should be left up to Congress. Shaheen who had previously voiced a wait-and-see approach to the impending executive action from the president joins a number of at-risk Democrats who are urging the president to leave immigration reform to lawmakers. Obama has vowed to take some form of executive action to address the nations immigration crisis and it could come as early as this week. Lawmakers failed to send immigration legislation addressing the immigration crisis including a recent flood of 57000 unaccompanied minors from Central American countries before summer recess. Obama has yet to release details about his impending executive action but he has been considering a number of options that could grant temporary legal protection from deportation -- on the basis of family relationships with citizens length of residency or employment -- to as many as 5 million people residing in the country without permission.

We have seen too many stories of grandmothers of U.S. citizen children who have lived here for decades being deported said Kamal Essaheb immigration policy attorney for the National Immigration Law Center in Washington. Billions of dollars of resources are being thrown away to deport literally a thousand people a day.
