Actually more Democrats voted for the bill than Republicans.
edit: Sensenbrenner put the felony language in the bill to bring attention to the issue, to get people riled up. The Republicans softened the language, but the Democrats (hoping that the media would give them cover fire--which is exactly what happened) fought to keep the felony language in the bill and passed it.
Besides...who gives a ***** what criminals (illegals) and their supporters think?
