June 12 (Bloomberg) -- The attempted seduction of SenatorJohn Cornyn by immigration reformers is akin to my effort to getNeil Patrick Harris, the best emcee ever of any awards show, tosing at my next birthday. No matter how much I offer him, he’llturn me down.
That’s the situation in which Senator Marco Rubio ofFlorida finds himself with several Republican colleagues. Takehis wooing of Cornyn, of Texas. Cornyn is just not that intoimmigration reform. He won re-election comfortably in 2008 by 12points, despite losing the Hispanic vote by 25 points.
