A betting man, which The Fix is most definitely not, would say that the odds of some sort of immigration reform measure passing before the 2014 elections are decidedly less than 50-50 after a week when both Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and House Speaker John A. Boehner talked down the idea.
The logic is simple: The Republican base a.k.a. the voters the party badly needs in order to win back the Senate and hold the House in November doesnt like the idea of providing the 11million illegal immigrants in the United States with a path to legalization or, especially, citizenship. Those in the base also dont believe that the Obama administration is up to the task of enforcing more-stringent border security measures, even if Congress passes some.
