A new SurveyUSA poll shows Democrat Jim Costa trailing Republican Andy Vidak by 10 points, 42% to 52%. Obama won the Fresno-based district with 60% of the vote in 2008, and Cook Political Report has the race rated "Leans Democrat."
An interesting fact from Cook (subscription required): "This district is now 67 percent Hispanic, but it also has a serious cultural conservative streak. Proposition 8, the same-sex marriage ban passed statewide [in 2008], garnered 72 percent of the vote here." The provision to fund abortion coverage in Obamacare is probably hurting Costa in this district--SurveyUSA reports that 56% of likely voters in the district are "pro-life" and 40% "pro-choice" (a third-party group recently hit Barbara Boxer in an ad for not representing "our values" on issues like abortion and marriage).
Polls like this one explain why Obama is explicitly urging Latinos to "punish" their "enemies" on Election Day. The bad news for Obama and Democrats like Jim Costa is that many Latinos oppose liberal policies.
That’s a huge swing!
We conservatives are all fools and delusional.
George Soros and the shadow party of billionaires have fixed the entire election in each state because they know it those who count the votes are the most important people and not the voters themselves.
Be prepared for another 40 years of Obama.
Hail Messiah!
Hispanics really need to consider what will happen if they support Democrats. When Republicans take the House and possibly the Senate, where will that put them? When Republicans see Hispanics not supporting them, what should they expect from Republicans?
“It’s 1894 again! Google it!”
Grover Cleveland’s Mid-term, after the Great Panic of 1890. I’ve been making comparisons to it, for a year!!!
Stay tuned.
How did we get Governors Christy and McDonnell
If so, it’ll devolve into a civil war rather quickly:

Is this your district?
Soros and Obama will get the last laugh as they retain both the House and the Senate. All the polls are rigged, Rush is on the take, Glenn Beck is actually buddy-buddy with Axelrod and Sarah Palin is in bed with Soros.
You folks have been had. Congratulations for being such suckers. As PT Barnum said, “There is a sucker born every minute.”
And the folks on our side are prime to be fleeced.
Obama will never relinquish power a la Castro. Bow down to your Messiah you fools. That is your only hope to survive the next two years as the 22nd Amendment is abolished.
Next your guns will be confiscated in the national interest and elections will be abolished forever.
Hail Messiah. Get used to it suckers! Voter fraud reigns forever.
Thanks for the encouragement!
You’re welcome.
This may be the sign of the end for the Dems nationwide
Carly has worked the Central Valley very hard. She has emphasized Boxer’s extemist environmental and abortion views and Boxer’s refusal to help farmers in the Valley get the water they need to farm. If you will pardon the pun, Carly’s work may be having a trickle down effect in this Congressional District.
There is a young Republican-—I think the youngest Congressman in the House-—from the Caterpiller/Peoria district of IL which is something like 50% black and is 60% Dem, and he is as conservative as you can get. he said his secret is that he went to every union hall and every black church and said, “I want your vote. We won’t always agree, but I’ll always be honest and I’ll always come back and listen.” And many said, “That’s the first time a Republican ever came to our church to talk to us.”
Ever hear of Charlton Heston?
Stop doing peyote during the day time, it's making you crazy.
Rush believes there is not enough voter fraud out there to cause the GOP from gaining the House.
Hey he’s only right 99.6% of the time. Could he be wrong this time?
“They would have to cheat to the point where everyone would notice it.” (because of low turnout by the other side)
By the way I was being completely sarcastic about Rush being on the take, Beck being buddy-buddy with Axelrod and Palin being in bed with Soros. But I am dead serious that Soros and his minions will try everything they can so that the Dems still control Congress after the midterms.
Do not take anything for granted. Our enemies are evil and all their intentions are nefarious.
A well-known local hispanic politician has for reasons that escape me changed from Dem to Independent and is actively and publicly promoting Repub candidates. Including spanish-language ads on the spanish stations.
OMgosh. I saved that link like 10 years ago because I liked it so much. Thanks for bringing it back into the light.
