No surprise, but today’s Politico writes off amnesty. Even Lindsey Graham said something sensible:

Immigration
If climate is on life support, immigration is in the grave. Democrats are reluctant to take up the politically explosive issue in an already shaky political environment.
The White House told Latino activists that it would take up the issue in a conference call last month. And New York Sen. Chuck Schumer is pushing an immigration bill this year. But Graham — the main Republican working on the effort — wasn’t particularly optimistic that a comprehensive bill could get done.
If they deal with the issue at all, Democrats are likely to focus on the least controversial measures like employment verification.
“I don’t see how you can convince the American people to support comprehensive reform if you don’t get the border piece right,” Graham said. “We’ve got to prove to the American people through an incremental process that we can solve this problem.”
