As Perry backs off his relatively pragmatic record on immigration, Mike Riggs sees an opportunity:

A recent Gallup poll shows Obama’s approval ratings falling a full 12 points among Hispanics, which suggests Hispanics don’t need reminding that Obama sucks on immigration. But they may need convincing that there are alternative options. That former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson and former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman–neither of whom sits all that well with Tea Partiers or the GOP's kingmakers–both received F grades from [anti-immigration organization] NumbersUSA would actually serve them quite well with Hispanic voters.
