All but drowned out by Republicans’ clamorous opposition to President Obama’s executive action on immigration are some leaders who worry that their party could alienate the fastest-growing group of voters, for 2016 and beyond, if its hottest heads become its face.
They cite the Republican Party’s official analysis of what went wrong in 2012, the presidential-election year in which nominee Mitt Romney urged Latinos here illegally to “self-deport.”
“If Hispanics think that we do not want them here,” the report said, “they will close their ears to our policies.”
“Both the president and the Republican Party confront risks here,” said Bill McInturff, a Republican pollster. While the danger for Mr. Obama is “being perceived as overstepping his boundaries,” Mr. McInturff said, “the Republicans’ risk is opposing his action without an appropriate tenor, and thereby alienating the Latino community.”
How the two parties manage their respective risks as they battle for public opinion is likely to define the final two years of Mr. Obama’s presidency as well as the emerging race to pick his successor....

We need to use the same tactic on Federal taxes.
Run on the promise of amnesty for not paying taxes.
Let the DNC go after the money owed when they get back in the WH!
The precedent has been set with 100% full approval of the MSM.
Bump.
Republicans will never get the majority of the Hispanic vote unless they can convincingly promise more freebies than the Democrats.
Bunch of bleeping pussies.
simply tell the truth and theres nothing to fear.
They don’t need the majority of the Hispanic vote, just get all of the conservative ones. They’re out there.
The old gray whore is up on her soapbox again but, again, it sounds like she forgot to put her teeth in.
They’re probably begging for it. The people of Mexico.
If we’re going to be forced into the AMERO currency, let’s get down there and burn up THEIR constitution so we can move there and exploit that landmass and its resources.
Party before country. Everyone dies. I hope they die a miserable long painful degrading death.
Grow a spine Wino's!
Anyone just learning to despise the Repugnants is sure a slow learner. I've despised them since Jorge Busho. He's the liberal pig who started all this.
The Republican establishment works for the same side Obama and the Democrats do. They’re afraid the conservatives will awaken America like Reagan did.
The RINOs don’t have to worry about me. I’m going to be nice and start referring to them as Barry’s documented illegal aliens. Obamnesty changes nothing. The Emperor doesn’t respect our laws, I don’t respect his phone and pen.
You’re right that they are out there but they probably have been in the USA for at least two generations as my family has and we vote conservatively. But most of the newer arrivals who I count as twenty years or less are very dependent on big brother government. Their numbers are growing very fast. John McCain and Jeb Bush etc. either are ignorant or playing us for fools when it comes to immigration.

I was soft peddling it. I began to despise the GOPe back around 1994 during the Prop 187 fight.
A cadre of GOPe treason party members flew out to support the illegal aliens and to fight against our grass roots Prop 187 campaign. Jack Kemp, Bill Bennett, and Texas governor GW Bush were prominent members of that treason party. I knew that Dubya was no good before he was elected President and he lived down to my expectations.
I know quite a few legal Hispanics that are against amnesty. GOP better grow a pair and stop obama.
Hammer
Nail
Articles of Impeachment on the White House door!
The Left tellin us what we think and lecturing us how to win
priceless
it’s like Heydrich telling Jews which train was the safe one ...
LOL, that's as good as any analogy I have seen recently.
