From The Wall Street Journal:
Most places that have been receptive to the minors already have sizable immigrant
populations and are led by Democrats. "These moderate to liberal mayors and governors
are speaking to their constituents," said Louis DeSipio, a political science professor
at the University of California, Irvine. "They are also giving the president some
coverage by saying, 'We don't want these kids crossing but we will be responsible
to the ones who are here.' "
