Flashback from November 8, 2006 – the day after the election :
Q Thank you, Mr. President. On immigration, many Democrats had more positive things to say about your comprehensive proposal than many Republicans did. Do you think a Democratic Congress gives you a better shot at comprehensive immigration reform?
THE PRESIDENT: You know, I should have brought this up. I do. I think we have a good chance. Thank you. It’s an important issue and I hope we can get something done on it. I meant to put that in my list of things that we need to get done.
