The GOP AGREED after the 2012 loss to Obama that it needed to do comprehensive immigration reform.
That is a moderate to conservative stance that they had a chance of getting Democrats to go along with. One of today's GOP candidates (Rubio) was a bold leader in trying to bring about reform; and worked with Obama and others to try to make it happen.
But, the prevailing attitude among the GOP was whatever Obama is for, they have to be against, even if what he's for is what THEY'RE for! And they WERE FOR comprehensive immigration reform; but because of this crazy anti-Obama madness, they flipped. It's insane.
Now they're beating Rubio over the head for trying to do what the RNC RECOMMENDED the GOP do following their 2012 loss in the election.
It's sick.
