The only time that party affiliation matters is during primaries and this would probably help more liberal candidates win Republican primaries, since immigrants tend to be more liberal than the general population IIRC. On the other hand, it might stop Democrats from targeting these people during elections on the assumption that they're probably voting Republican, while giving Republicans a chance to target these people with their message and potentially change their minds.

I haven't heard of similar immaturity from Democrats, especially in Florida, but maybe I'm wrong. What about conservatives causes them to have the tendency toward condescending crap like this than liberals?
