These same people are going to vote for Dubya over a liberal candidate for President? roflol. I don't think so. lol

I agree with you. Texas Hispanics gave Bush a split of their vote, a really good split that cost the Rats.

But Tejano Mexicans are a different breed of cat from the majority. They're called "Nortenos" in Mexico, and they're the kind of people who voted for Vicente Fox, more work- and business-oriented. I think Bush has miscalculated. He thinks if he can get a good split of Texas and Florida Hispanics, everything will be cool. He has an education in store for him, the first time he has to run against a Hispanic candidate. And Texas GOP'ers are going to pay the price. -- Which is okay, since so many of them are RINO's now. Bush and his allies have been pushing conservatives out quietly, using money to elbow them out in the primaries.

Yesterday's GOP primary featured an avalanche of glossy mail-out fliers with the word "conservative" plastered all over them -- but many of the voter guides and fliers came from RINO's and their PAC's, and from corrupt political consultants who own their own PAC's and sell endorsements or just flog their own rich-RINO clients.

The Texas Republican Party is coterminous with the Yacht Club wing of the GOP now. Conservatives are being slowly extinguished for RINO, Chamber-of-Commerce values. This has been most obvious where Bush, as governor, pushed hard to wipe out the real, grass-roots conservatives on the state school board, running and backing Education Establishment RINO's against them, who are pushing his continuation of the Clinton/NEA omnium-gatherum education takeover. Which just indicates that the program is bigger than the political parties.

Sanchez who is well to the left of Hillary (pro-gay rights, pro-abortion, extremely pro-Affirmative Action, pro-Socialized medicine) is a hit with the Tejanos. They even had a choice between a moderate Hispanic and an extreme liberal Hispanic with businesses that laundered money for the Mexican drug cartels and they very heavily went for the liberal.
