Hillary Clinton Watch: Hillary Now Says NO to Illegal Alien Driver’s Licenses
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_B0uHybfmmY&eurl=http://flapsblog.com/?cat=94&paged=2[/youtube]
Remember the last Democrat debate a couple of weeks ago. The video is above.
Then, the next day in Iowa Hillary fully supported New York Governor Elliot Spitzer’s plan to grant New York illegal aliens a driver’s license.
Now, Governor Spitzer has withdrawn his proposal and Hillary has FLIPPED her position again. Flap wonders if THIS poll had something to do with it?
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton on Wednesday came out against granting driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants, after weeks of pressure in the presidential race to take a position on a now-failed ID plan from her home state governor.
Clinton has faced criticism from candidates in both parties for her noncommittal answers on New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer’s attempt to allow illegal immigrants in his state to receive driver’s licenses. Spitzer abandoned the effort Wednesday.
“I support Governor Spitzer’s decision today to withdraw his proposal,” Clinton said in a statement. “As president, I will not support driver’s licenses for undocumented people and will press for comprehensive immigration reform that deals with all of the issues around illegal immigration including border security and fixing our broken system.”
Do you think Hillary will be asked about her FLIP FLOP on illegal alien driver’s licenses tonight at the Democrat debate?
Count on it………
In the meantime, Hillary’s lead for the Democrat nomination is slipping away since the FLAP on this issue two weeks ago.
Stay tuned……

Will Illegal Immigration Be a 2008 Wedge Issue for the GOP? Part Two
Graphic Courtesy of the Lone Star Times: A fake Driver’s License?
The Democrats HAVE an illegal alien problem. Look at this poll of blue state New Yorkers.
Seven in ten New York voters who have read or heard about the Governor’s proposal to allow undocumented aliens to obtain New York driver’s licenses continue to oppose his original plan, and nearly two-thirds oppose his revised three-tiered license plan, according to a new Siena (College) Research Institute poll of registered voters released today. The Siena New York poll shows that Spitzer’s job performance rating is now virtually two-to-one negative and, for the first time ever, more voters now view him unfavorably than view him favorably. If the 2010 gubernatorial election were today, only 25 percent of voters are prepared to re-elect Eliot Spitzer, while 49 percent prefer “someone else.”
This is not just a Hillary problem but a generic one that the GOP could ride to redemption of 2006 losses in the Congress.
The poll numbers do not lie – notwithstanding the noise and wishful thinking of the LEFT and RIGHT.
A GOP WEDGE ISSUE?
You betcha……

Let’s see:1. Anchor babies
2. Illegal aliens flooding emergency rooms for “FREE” medical care including the birth of their anchor babies
3. Fraudulent social security cards
4. Fake driver’s licenses and driving with no insurance
5. Mexican gangs, importation of Mexican methamphetamine and criminal activity
To name just a few issues that Mort Kondrake fails to mention.
Flap thinks illegal immigration WILL be a GOP “WEDGE ISSUE” in the 2008 Presidential race.
And the States Kondrake mentions are either RED states like Arizona and Florida or are low electoral vote states like Nevada and New Mexico. Nevada having a large import of non-Hispanic California voters since the last census.
Mort would be better to leave “the Beltway” and travel to the Western United States to understand the impacts. Then, he could return to the Midwest and South to see how illegal aliens are taking entry level jobs from native-born Americans.

Hillary Clinton Watch: Slip – Sliding Away
Captain Ed and Hugh Hewitt make the case that Hillary is slipping and her nomination may spell a disaster for Democrats next November.
Flap continues to assert she will be the Democrat nominee but will lose in a close race against Rudy Giuliani.
However, with the high negatives Hillary is generating particularly with the illegal alien driver’s license issue, it is conceivable of an electoral college disaster for the Democrats.

New York Congressional Democrats Fear Governor’s Illegal Alien Driver’s Licenses Proposal

The WEDGE ISSUE of the 2008 Presidential campaign is striking fear in Democrat members of Congress from New York.
Democratic members of Congress, having watched Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton stumble on the question of whether states should give driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants, are growing increasingly agitated over Gov. Eliot Spitzer’s plan to do so and are calling for him to shelve the idea.
The Democrats WILL NOT surrender to the 70% plus of Americans who revolt against illegal aliens obtaining a driver’s license because they are pandering for the Latino/Hispanic vote.
Finesse the issue, they WILL.
Abandon this PANDER BEAR – No.
A GOP resurgence may very well rest on this bungle by New York Elliot Spitzer and New York’s Senator Hillary Clinton.
Stay tuned…….

Rudy Giuliani – NO Illegal Alien Driver’s Licenses
[youtube]http://youtube.com/watch?v=eLsNonk3-NA[/youtube]
Rudy on the Today Show
Rudy Giuliani today called on the Congress to pass laws prohibiting states from granting driver’s licenses to illegal aliens.
Rudy Giuliani on Wednesday called on Congress to prohibit states from giving driver’s licenses or similar forms of identification to illegal immigrants …
After accepting an endorsement in Washington, D.C., from Christian conservative Pat Robertson, Giuliani said he called Republican Reps. Pete Sessions of Texas and Peter King of New York that morning to propose the legislation. …
“There seems to be … a loophole that allows states not (to) give a license that would be a real ID but some other form of a license. That would make things hopelessly confusing for the immigration service,†Giuliani said.
The Republican frontrunner added that Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton’s proposal to allow states to decide whether to grant the licenses could obstruct the ability of the federal government to secure the borders. …
[G]iuliani said … that federalism is not the answer on this issue.
“The idea is the federal government is supposed to secure the borders, the federal government is supposed to regulate immigration. If we had 50 different regulations for immigration in the United States, it would become the picture that we have right now, which is a very, very confusing picture.”
How will Hillary finesse a vote on this legislation with a YES and NO answer?
Illegal immigration may well become the number one WEDGE issue in the Presidential campaign of 2008.

Somebody from the Democrat Pary should remind Hillary of the Motor Voter Act signed by her husband, President Bill Clinton in 1993 and the fact that 8 of the 19 9/11 hijackers were registered to vote.How do you spell voter FRAUD?
The WEDGE ISSUE for Rudy.
How fast can the GOP run the television commercials after February 5, 2008?

Illegal Immigration Watch: The Issue the Democrats Dread
Men, stripped down to their underwear, walk back into Mexico across the Rio Grande river separating the U.S. and Mexico in Laredo, Texas. Carrying their clothes in plastic bags the men were trying to swim into the U.S. when they spotted the U.S. Border Patrol watching them and then turned back. Hundreds of illegal aliens cross the river each day trying to sneak into the U.S.
Why do the Democrats dread the issue of illegal immigration?
1. Wrong on the issue – hurts them in fed-up White suburban communities who see tax dollars flying out to pay for social welfare entitlements at their expense.
2. Racial pandering of Latinos hurts them in the African-American community.
Wow, that is a no-brainer.
As was demonstrated this past Tuesday when Hillary Clinton attempted to STRADDLE the issue of driver’s licenses for illegal aliens, the Democrats will not be able to play the issue both ways. Either they will be for illegal alien amnesty (which they ARE) or NOT.
Illegal immigration will be the WEDGE ISSUE for the 2008 Presidential campaign.
Stay tuned……

Hillary Clinton Now Supports Drivers Licenses for Illegal Aliens
[youtube]http://youtube.com/watch?v=_B0uHybfmmY[/youtube]
Remember the Democrat debate on Tuesday?Hillary was both for and against New York Governor Elliot Spitzer’s proposal to grant New York State Driver’s Licenses to illegal aliens.
A day later, Hillary’s campaign says she supports the Governor’s efforts. But which one?
Mrs. Clinton’s aides said her statement was intended to signal that she broadly supported Mr. Spitzer’s goal of awarding driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants. Mr. Spitzer initially proposed a blanket program of awarding full-fledged driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants; in the face of sharp opposition from the Legislature, he backed off and presented a two-tier program system of awarding licenses to illegal immigrants.
Mrs. Clinton’s advisers said that she had not studied either plan, and was not specifically endorsing either of them.
Lou Dobbs a week before the debate had this:
[youtube]http://youtube.com/watch?v=KWjRa5FfGfI[/youtube]
This issue will be the WEDGE ISSUE for the 2008 Presidential campaign. Drivers Licenses for illegal aliens is NOT popular and will put Hillary on the defensive – all campaign long.
But, since she has not endorsed either of Spitzer’s proposals will she spin away?
Don’t count on Rudy or the GOP not to hold her accountable. The television commeiicals and direct mail pieces are going to exploit Hillary’s position AND her flip-flop of having it both way on her positions.
Is this why her campaign is SO pissed with Tim Russert of NBC?Stay tuned…..
