This is from the LA Weekly and it is posted in its entirety on FR.

"L.A. Weekly has learned that, according to research exit polls, The Passion of the Christ is attracting a gargantuan 40 percent Latino audience in the cities tested. Until now, there has been only anecdotal evidence that Latinos, as well as Asians and African-Americans, are flocking to the film. The research shows that Latinos are rating Passion higher than does any other ethnic group, and 76 percent say theyre inclined to pay to see the movie again. Not only do 86 percent of Latinos say the film is excellent, but 80 percent say the movie is better than they expected. And while a whopping percentage of the overall audience say they would definitely recommend it, that figure among Latinos is a startling 91 percent.

All I hear is about how we are going to lose the Hispanic vote. Doesn't anyone in the Bush campaign understand what motivates people? I am sure the President is a nice guy (in fact I know it since I met him), but we don't need syrupy sermons tell us this.

The RATS big weakness is their elitism, atheism and dislike for everyday, common cultural norms. Their identity politics advantages are easily turned into liabilities since the views of the various identity groups conflict with one another.

I agree with you about their venerability.... The Bush campaign is just beginning to take actions and start laying the foundations for their campaign. They will make mistakes at times along the way and hopefully they will correct them. The hard core of each party isn't going to be swayed by any ads as you know but I suspect most of the undecideds aren't paying that much attention to things at the present time.

Seven Months is many eternities in the realm of political elections.
