President punts immigration reform issue to Congress - TheHill.com: "President Obama is urging Congress to pass immigration reform, but has given no indication he will craft a plan of his own.
Immigration reform is widely regarded as having little chance of passing in the divided 112th Congress, especially if Obama does not take an active role in crafting a bill.
Critics say Obama’s recent emphasis on immigration is geared toward convincing skeptical Latino voters that he is committed to signing a bill into law. A large majority of Hispanic voters did not vote in last year’s midterm elections, and a repeat in 2012 would hamper Obama’s chances of winning a second term."
