Mike Huckabee is set to unveil an immigration plan on Monday that a source inside his campaign described as very tough on illegal immigration.

The plan will be rolled out just as Mitt Romney, in an attempt to stave off a challenge in Iowa, is attacking Huckabee for being soft on illegal immigration as governor.

I'll await details for further comment, but this sounds like a schrewd move by the Huckabee campaign. What is Romney going to do, criticize another candidate for being more conservative during the presidential campaign than he was during his time as governor?

UPDATE: The immigration plan is still on, but will not be announced on Monday. See here.
