Having said that, some of the biggest rednecks in the company I work for are hispanic. I don't know the family histories of all of them, but I imagine most have been here for at least one generation. Some, I know, go back further than the Texas revolution.
There is absolutely no reason why hispanics can't become more reliable GOP voters than whites or any other race, unlike blacks where this seems to be an insitutional problem. With hispanics, at least in Texas, it seems to be more broken down along economic lines than racial lines. Middle class hispanics and above vote for our guys.
I admire your wading into a thread like this... I knew the way the posts would be going before I even opened the thread.
Just sign me,
A fan.
Are you suggesting the illegal aliens pouring into Texas vote? Or are you under the impression that Texas is changing due to legal Hispanics? To compound the problem, the legal Hispanics on the lower end of the economic ladder will always for the leftist socialist. It's just a fact of life Dog, regardless of what they may say to your face.
This would be true if there weren't so many Republicans that act as if they want to run off non-white members.
Read this --- "hispanics" have taken a pretty good leftist swing back home --- they're going back to the PRI party or in some cases the more leftist PRD party.

Why on earth does anyone think Mexico is full of Republicans or Conservatives? There is no evidence of that at all.
