Last month, 52 percent of Hispanic voters polled said they would vote for the president. That has now dropped to 44 percent.
El Presidente está marchitando “Rapido y Furioso”
Apparently he hasn’t been pandering enough. He needs to start negotiations with Mexico to return the Western United States back to Mexico.
That should get him back above 50%.
Rasmussen Saturday: Romney 49 Obama 48
Interesting that Romney’s numbers overtaking Obama’s is not the headline, even though it’s the far more important aspect of the numeric change. Obama’s numbers could similarly fall with blacks, from 94% to 88%, but that would not change his control in that demographic. Here, the lead has been taken... but only Obama’s decline seems to matter to the headline writer.
When the campaign started she asked whether she was Democrat or Republican.
I said: Do you believe in Abortion on demand paid by tax payers? Do you believe that we can tax our way to prosperity? Do you believe that teachers and not parents know what is best for your children in terms of nutrition, sex education and sexual orientation?
She put a Romney sign in our front yard the next day.
I think the recent Univision special coverage of Fast & Furious could have had much to do with educating the Hispanic folks as to how little the regime cares for them, as well as anyone else.
You mean they’re finally figuring out that he cares no one bit for their(or their relatives) lives? The only thing he cares about is getting their votes and he’ll lie to get them.
All the gay Hispanics will vote for Obama.
Muy Bueno Bump!
I would have suspected such a shift might be caused by the Fast and Furious exposure on Univision...but I did not see any reference to it in article. Are the peasants allowed to be informed about it?
This cannot BE?!?!?!?!
Idi Obama publicly celebrated Quatro de Cinco!
What is wrong with these people?!?!?!?
Last month, 52 percent of Hispanic voters polled said they would vote for the president. That has now dropped to 44 percent.
How does Mitt Romney do with minor political parties and ultraconservatives? Might as well ask.
If Obama’s poll numbers were RISING rather than eroding among any interest group, ethnic group, state, or organization, we’d never hear the end of it from the liberal MSM.
Yet all we hear morning, noon, and night is Obama support-erosion stories. He’s continually losing the Jewish vote, the Hispanic vote, women, Florida; he even dropped 8% in California following his awful debate performance. Yet, amazingly, Obama’s overall support in the country somehow never ‘’erodes’’ below 47 percent!
Instead of the usual pundits, the cable-news shows need to bring on mathematical geniuses and experts in the paranormal to explain what’s really going on.
The Hispanic folks I know are intelligent, hard-working, socially conservative, and church-going. It’s not surprising these folks are abandoning Obama. It always surprised me that the polls claimed otherwise, but then again, I never believed those polls in the first place.
My family has legal Mexican workers here in Louisiana and they tell us the also-Mexican friends of theirs say they will definitely NOT vote for Obama. They do not want illegals flooding into this country that will take their jobs or flood the market causing their pay to be less.
The media and Obama don’t seem to understand that ALL GROUPS who’ve been hurt by the lousy economy are trending away from Obama, relative to 2008.
The Hispanic ‘community’ in Florida is part Mexican and Puerto Rican, who vote DOP, and part Cuban, who vote GOP. Were the Cubans inclining towards Obama and got turned off and now wish to vote their customary way, or have the Mexicans gotten turned off and now want to vote Republican?
At any rate, another significant number of Hispanics are not officially in Florida, but are paid to vote Democratic, only they do so under the names like Shloime Berkowitz, Ruth Goldstein, and Buggs Bunny, who are variously deceased, disabled, or fictional. Obama’s support still remains unanimous in this demographic.
It’s a fantasy to think that most Hispanics are going to vote Republican. Cuban-Americans are the only group that trend Republican, and Cuban-Americans are only statistically significant in Florida.
Most Hispanics want big government, because they are the benificiaries of it. They are not as conservative as they are made out to be, and they are more apt to support gun control and even gay marriage. Mexican-Americans especially are not oriented toward voting based on social issues. Furthermore, Hispanic women have a higher abortion rate then white women.
Sure, you’ll have a few Hispanics vote Republicans, but they form a minority of a minority.
