An interesting tidbit has emerged from yesterday's Washington Post/ABC poll that puts another nail in the coffin of the hopes of Democrats to hang on to the Senate.
By a two to one margin, Hispanics that expressed an opinion on the matter see a GOP takeover of the Senate as a "good thing." But will the Republicans draw the right inference from this?
On Tuesday, a new Washington Post/ABC News poll showed that fully half of Hispanics do not believe that it makes a difference who wins the Senate in the 2014 midterm elections. And those who care, the poll showed, heavily favored Republicans – twice as many Hispanics, in fact, thought it would be a positive if Republicans took over the Senate (30 percent) as if Democrats took over the Senate (15 percent). That’s because Hispanics think the economy stinks – 76 percent said they were negative about the economy. Overall, according to the poll, Hispanics favor Democrats over Republicans by a 44 percent to 27 percent margin.
Naturally, the Republican Party will take exactly the wrong message from this poll. Speaker of the House John Boehner said in September that immigration reform would be high on the list of priorities after the election. Party insiders are saying the same thing. The notion: if Republicans can show Hispanics that they care about immigration reform by passing a comprehensive bill, Obama will either sign it or he won’t; if he signs it, Republicans will be given the credit, and if he doesn’t, he will look as though he doesn’t care about Hispanics.

So elect the RINO’s and slow it down a tiny bit. Yeah, that’s the ticket.
With an illiterate electorate, what kind of future does this county have?
But Voter Fraud will...
I wish I could believe that. More Republican, maybe ...
Thank you SaF, this is good news, If we have to take over one seat at a time we can.
Ha, ha, ha
If 7 of 10 likely voters were happy with things and by 15 points L/Vs backed Democrats in the Senate races needed to take over and Black enthusiasm as at an all time high instead of sagging and 18 to 29 year old L/Vs were their usual 60/40 in favor of Democrats and Obama’s approval numbers were 55% we would and should be worried. But these numbers are exactly the opposite so yes there is room for optimism because the House and the Senate will be markedly more conservative next January. We are not dead. We have opportunities to fight back and apparently we are. These who want to say we are dead already ought to step to the side so those who want to fight on can continue working to save America.
“Poll: Hispanics won’t save Dems from 2014 disaster”
It appears we’ve been lied to (yet again) by the Republican Party functionaries who have lectured us that we can’t win unless we co-opt the latinos.
In fact, as Steve Sailer as pointed out repeatedly—and backed it up with statistical analysis, Republicans win when they increase their percentage of white voters, regardless of how other ethnic/racial groups vote.
