Whether Bush can deliver the goods is obviously open to question, but since Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid traveled to Mexico City two days later to make the same commitment, it seems that Mexico’s six years of vain efforts might finally prove fruitful. Needless to say, Calderón was thrilled, particularly because he had begun backing away from the emphasis his predecessor, Vicente Fox, placed on the immigration issue.
布什究竟是否能兑现他的承诺显然还是一个疑问，但是既然两天后参议院多数党领袖哈里·里德来到墨西哥城也作出了同样的承诺，看上去墨西哥六年徒劳无益的努力最终证明是有成果的。勿需多言，卡尔德隆非常高兴，尤其是因为他已经开始从他的前任福克斯对于移民问题所强调的观点向后退了。
