Don't think it'll ever happen. Democrats get the minority vote, Republicans' big business buddies get the cheap labor...illegal immigration is a win for both so they really don't give a shit. Say what you will about the Arizona measure but they're at least trying to solve the problem.
I think most Republicans are worse in the matter generally because they'll say all day long that illegal immigration is a problem because they want to act like they're interested in protecting the country for the senior vote, all the while doing absolutely nothing about it because of the cheap labor it brings to the companies that give them lots of money. Democrats at least don't have to be two-faced about it like most Republicans have been.
