I saw Matt Dowd, Bush's pollster, on one of the TV shows before the election and he said all his polling showed Bush was doing better among Hispanics than in 2000---somewhere between 38-40% (I think he was 37% in 2000). That's very serious, because the Dems are down to the absolute slimmest of margins. If Bush picks up 1% of blacks (which polls show he's done) and 3% of Hispanics, it's all over.
Absolutely agree. Forget who's registered with which party. The Dems cannot afford to lose even 2% of the black vote, which by all accounts, appears to be very possible.
