From this:

Senate Democrats have reached out to former CNN anchor and prominent illegal-immigration opponent Lou Dobbs in an effort to build broad bipartisan support for immigration reform.

...Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), who is spearheading the Democrats’ effort to put together a comprehensive reform bill, met with Dobbs on Wednesday.

"We’re meeting with all different kinds of groups, trying to get everybody together to come out for one bill,” Schumer said.

...Schumer noted that Dobbs, who left CNN in November, is "changing his views on immigration."

What's noticeably missing from the article (and a similar one from The Politico) is any kind of quote or statement from Dobbs. If asked, he'd probably just say he's having a general discussion as he'd do with anyone. And, Charles Schumer might be trying to send the wrong impression about their discussion. However, considering Dobbs' recent seachange, there's a possibility that he might become a spokesman of some kind for some non-extremist amnesty bill. That makes it all the more important to do things that are effective rather than following those who don't really understand the immigration issue or who don't understand how to solve problems or who will turn out, like Dobbs, not to be the person you thought they were. It's easy to imagine, for instance, a site like HotAir capitulating on some sort of comprehensive immigration reform compromise, not to mention other, even worse rightwing bloggers.
