Many immigrants are socially conservative, fiscally conservative, and (when personally successful) would prefer a small government. Many of them are a natural fit as GOP-of-one-generation-into-the-future voters, I'd guess. (I don't have a crystal ball, obviously, but I have observed that parties nearly always adapt; and if they don't, they're replaced, which can happen surprisingly quickly in terms of election cycles.)
