From the Tucson Citizen:
Louis DeSipio, a political science professor at University of California, Irvine,
said Obama appears to be trying to strike a middle ground heading into the 2012 election
to appease both Latinos and immigration-enforcement supporters. He doubts either side
will be satisfied. Enforcement supporters will view the new policy as softening on
illegal immigration, while Latinos and immigrant advocates will remain disillusioned
with Obama for failing to get immigration reform passed, he said.
