Push poll designed to give Jeb Bush “told ya so” credibility.
Oh c'mon, Jeb Bush controls Washington Post polls - that's just silly.
The poll shows that amnesty is not critically important to a large number of latinos.
How on earth would that help Jeb Bush who argues the exact opposite?
I don't think so. But then again who would trust the Washington Post?
OTOH, I have always believed that Latinos are natural Republicans or, more properly, conservatives. I base this on two key facts: Latinos are solid Christians by belief and hard working by nature. Those are not typical features found on the left. As Latinos move into the middle class they will drift from Dem to GOP simply as a matter of self-interest.
As noted in the article, not all Latinos are interested in IMMIGRATION. Those that are here legally and vote want jobs and security. Immigration is not high on their list.
It doesn’t look like that. Look at the comment by Robert Guzman complaining that Dems only talk about immigration, immigration, immigration when other issues matter more to hispanics.
If anything it suggests that Bush’s emphasis on immigration is the wrong approach to winning over Hispanics.
