My thought exactly. Perhaps Mr. McCain, and others in his camp, would like to explain to us dunder-headed voters why they can't compete for them, now.
Seriously, if a Freeper could clue me in how they think, I'd appreciate it. I mean, Conservative values win every time they are tried, with honesty. So, either is the open border crowd saying that Hispanics are fundamentally unable to embrace Conservatism, or what?
Hispanics are the classic Dem constituents. They favor big government. They have out of wedlock birthrates of over 50% and the highest school dropout rates of any group. Hispanic immigrants and immigrants in general use welfare programs to a much higher degree than the native born. Hispanics are considered a minority as classified by the USG thus making them eligible for affirmative action and minority business set asides.
The bottom line is that Hispanics are solidly Dems. The idea that the Reps can get anywhere near a majority of their vote is a pipe dream. They vote their interests, which are more aligned to the Dems.
