The above poll is confirmed by another poll:

Obama leads Romney among Hispanics in 5 key states

EXCERPT:

__________________________

President Barack Obama is leading likely Republican opponent Mitt Romney among Hispanic voters in the key electoral states of Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Nevada y Virginia, according to a survey released Friday.

The poll taken by Latino Decisions shows Obama with 53 percent support in Florida among Hispanics against 37 percent for Romney.

In the other states Obama’s lead is even greater: 74 percent against 18 percent in Arizona, 70 percent against 22 percent in Colorado, 69 percent against 20 percent in Nevada, and 59 percent against 28 percent in Virginia.

Averaging the results from all five states shows Obama in front of Romney among Hispanics by 63 percent to 27 percent, according to the survey, which was taken between June 12-21 among 2,000 Latino voters and has a margin of error of plus/minus 2.2 percent.

Part of the Democratic incumbent’s advantage “appears related” to his recent announcement temporarily suspending the deportations of hundreds of thousands of young undocumented immigrants, a measure that will particularly benefit Hispanics, according to Latino Decisions.

The survey also asked Latinos to quantify their level of enthusiasm about the upcoming November elections.

Sixty percent said they were “very enthusiastic” about the vote compared with just 47 percent in November 2011.

As I've said on countless threads, there are two important things about these polls:

1) The % is irrelevant if the fervor and intensity is down. I predict that black intensity, for example, will be marginally down, but enough to make a difference. I predict with much more confidence that youth intensity (18-25) will be waaaay down. (The % there is also down 25% from 2008) So, if the %s are high, but total numbers voting is low, % is somewhat irrelevant.

2) the "key state" polls are more troubling, but still, AZ doesn't count. Romney won't lose AZ. There are four states where it may count: NV, CO, NM, and VA---the latter being the one where Hispanics would influence the election the least.

None of it makes a whit of difference if Romney keeps widening his lead among whites and working Americans. No one can with the presidency without winning that demo.

It sort of proves that the "family value" most important to them is getting as much free stuff provided by the gringos as possible, doesn't it?

And Romney hasn't exactly been a slackard in that category, has he?

It is a dire mistake to take a poll of Hispanics regarding Obama and Mitt Romney and to equate that Obama’s recent pandering with respect to illegals ISN’T a factor and then in the same breath say that the ECONOMY is the factor, and that Obama wins on this.

I call Shennanigans, Bullshit and Olly, Olly Oxen-Free! What Horseshit! Complete and utter HORSESHIT!

Tell it like it is. Hispanics are like blacks, and a black President is nearer to their brown color than a whitebread Romney. It is patent racism, plain and tall.

They only care about the color of their brown, law-breaking cousins from down south, and everything else gets colored according to the nearness of color of the president.

I’m done with this - done pandering, appeasing and done walking on tippy toes....try seeing me hire any of you ever again.
