They, unabashedly, pursued the agendas of powerful lobbyist and interest groups and ignored the interests of the people. McCain is a good man, but today he paid the price for the GOP's mistakes.

I certainly hope the Republicans learn from this and start including the rest of America when they campaign. All of us are hard working Americans - not just white people. Please respect that.

I just feel that the GOP has focused so much on "illegal aliens" as opposed to recognizing that these are Christians that are coming across the border seeking help. I am very proud of the work our church does in helping a few of our fellow Christians. This is directly tied to the GOP immigration stance.

I have had the opportunity to be neighbors with Hispanics of all types over the last 20 years. They are wonderful, humble people who have been handled very badly by the Rethuglicans all over South America, Mexico and the Caribbean. Much Latino blood has been spilled in the quest for power in Latin America. As a result many have come here from shattered countries to make a life. Not a new story. Welcome to America.
