"You've been conned, GOP. You are never going to beat the Democrats at sucking up to foreigners. And your conservative base will flee.

The GOP should expend precisely as much effort fawning over the Hispanic vote as Democrats do over the gun vote, the pro-life vote and the white vote.

Republicans have got to stop believing The New York Times line that the only honorable votes are from minorities. It's honorable to get votes from taxpayers, too."


Maybe not in such harsh tones, but I believe the principle is correct.

Republicans also need to learn that their abject pandering to Hispanics (i.e. support for amnesty and open borders) doesn't really win them very many new voters, since Hispanics can already get these things from the Democrats. What it does do is alienate millions of people who now vote GOP and want something done about illegal immigration.

It's not for nothing they call the GOP the stupid party, with a strategy of alienating people who already vote for you with the hope of attracting people who probably won't vote for you.
