Not this b.s. again. NR had a great study during the Bush admin about how far gone "Latino culture" really is. Hispanics that are libertarian or conservative? Sure, like me, there are a few here and there, but by and large "Latinos" are in a competition with other race-oriented groups to see how much they can suck from the system. Anybody that puts ridiculously unimportant and romantic notions about their "race" above anything else is never going to be a functional member of a representative republic. The Hispanic divide is Protestant/Catholic.
Bush won 56% of the Protestant Hispanic vote, and McCain/Palin won 48% of the Protestant Hispanic vote.

Ah the statistical lie.
Of the 41.3 million Latinos in the United States 2004, about 23 percent (9.5 million) identify themselves as Protestants or other Christians (including Jehovah’s Witnesses and Mormons). Moreover, 37 percent (14.2 million) of all Latino Protestants and Catholics say they have been born again or are evangelical, according to statistics compiled in the volume, Latino Religions and Civic Activism in the United States (2005, Oxford University Press).
