Letter: In it for themselves

Editor, Daily News:

If any of you out there still thought the U.S. Senate cared about you or your opinions, the newly passed immigration bill should put that thought to rest.

Isn't it ironic that the only four Democrats who voted against it were in hotly contested races, and the only Republicans who voted for it were in safe seats or not running in 2006. The only thing politicians care about is winning re-election and keeping their party in power.

Sen. Mel Martinez of Florida was the sponsor of this piece of trash, and he can rest assured I won't forget it.
