Told my Columbian-American friend about O’s relationship with Chavez with pictures. She was appalled. She had no idea. I told her to tell her friends and she said she would.
I say, link ‘em to the tyrants people were trying to escape.
Dear OddLane, there is no such thing as a Hispanic, and there is no Hispanic vote. In Florida, the Cuban exile community votes Republican because they know that the Dems are in bed with Fidel Castro. In states that border Mexico, the Mexicans vote for big government. In NY the Colombians vote for the Dems because they also love Castro. The Dominicans and Puerto Ricans vote Dem because they got folded unto the Black thing.
Even though you may think that Hispanics are pro family and traditionalists, that applies only to them. They come from unstable, corrupt countries where you get ahead by being part of a clan - think of them as Sicilians - how many of them voted Republican?
I’ve got it, we can give them a lowrider. Obama has his Obamaphone, but Republicans can promise a free lowrider!
Many Hispanics are Catholics and that would make them more likely to be Republican party members.
Many Hispanics are very hard workers and that would make them more likely to be Republican party members.
Many Hispanics are family oriented and that would make them more likely to be Republican party members.
However, many Hispanics are poor and the Democrat party is the party of freebies and you cannot defeat Santa Claus giving away free money.

Pew study says Latino voter numbers likely to spike in Illinois
IL Congressman Luis Gutierrez (D-4CD) is ramping up his push for comprehensive immigration reform in Barack Obama’s second term as president.
“There is pressure on Republicans to change their tune but there is also pressure on Democrats to deliver,” Gutierrez said on an NPR interview this week. “Latino voters put a lot of faith in President Obama and he has another four years because of that faith. But now he has to exert the muscle needed to forge the coalition of mostly Democrats and a few Republicans to get a bill passed and implemented.”
Along with Gutierrez push, a new Pew study indicates that in just one generation, the nation’s Latino vote will skyrocket to 40 million. Illinois is one of the states which will add to the annual combined number of 800,000 new Latino voters:
