Only three Republican senators voted for the DREAM act in December 2010:

Lame-duck Senator Bob Bennett (R-UT), who had already been successfully primaried
Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), who had been successfully primaried, but won the general election as a write-in
Dick Lugar, who will probably be primaried this year

Roll call link (http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=111&session=2&vote=00278)

2 weeks ago Lugar has scrubbed his website of the issue realizing he might lose because of it at the last moment.

lugar.senate.gov

The new site-->

vs. the old site before he fixed it

And now today a new poll comes show Lugar now only leads by 2%.


44-42. Not good for a 6-term incumbent senator.

He’s probably finished.

What I find amazing is that someone visited the site and noted the difference.

If your are interested here is the link to the page about the dream act.

Polipundit did although this was somewhat predictable. This happens always around election time.

The DREAM Act is a loser.

Well they can either gather millions and send them back or give them something so they can start paying taxes and contribute to the society. This idea of screwing over millions of kids doesn't sound nice at all.

Even Ron Paul said you can't just pack them up and send them back. It won't work.

Paul wants to get rid of national I.D. cards, social security etc not add more people to the welfare system even though it can't pay for the current ones.
