Hispanic voters, many of whom responded favorably to President Bush's campaign appeals emphasizing patriotism, family and religious values in Spanish-language media in 2004, are turning away from the administration on immigration and a host of other issues, according to a new survey. At the same time, separate polls show that conservative white Republicans are the voting group most hostile to the administration's support for policies that would move toward the legalization of many undocumented immigrants.In other words, no matter what Bush does, he is going to tick someone off. I guess that's why he's decided to just do what he thinks is right and not be swayed by polls.
I don't agree with Bush on immigration, but I admire him for being his own man.
Amen. The President has never governed by the polls and would never do so on such an important issue.
He doesn't have to depend upon polls or ratings to make decisions.
