President Barack Obama's decision to back down from his promises to take executive action on immigration reform until after the November midterm election could backfire on him, said Latino leaders Saturday, who vowed they won't forget the president and Democrats' "attempts to fool them" when the elections roll around.

Early Saturday, Obama bowed to Democratic Party pressure and reversed course on taking executive action on immigration reform until after the November midterm elections, after leaders voiced concerns that his rulings could cost Democrats their control of the Senate.

Back in June, Obama had promised during a high-profile Rose Garden appearance that he would announce unilateral measures by summer's end if Congress did not enact reform legislation.

But while the White House blamed his reversal on "Republicans' extreme politicization of the issue," Latino groups blamed him and his fellow Democrats, reports The Hill.

"To wait nine more weeks means that I must again look my mother in the eye and see the fear she has about living under the threat of deportation every day," said Cristina Jimenez, director of the advocacy group United We Dream. "But Dreamers will not soon forget the president and Democrats' latest failure and their attempts to fool the Latino community, and we remain resolute in fighting for justice for our families."

The reason I say this is that everything he does is calculated based on political positioning, polling and trying to gauge how this will impact his agenda.

It is just to quick and simple to assume that he thinks the backlash from doing this would all but guarantee the Senate would go red. There is more hear as always to the story. By pissing off all the groups and not allowing amnesty for 5 million as he promised, something much bigger is coming...
