Mexicans like our black brothers and sisters,are socially conservative for the most part but when it comes to fiscal issues, many(not all) will vote for the candidate that promises them the most goodies.

Cubans,Guatemalans, Salvadorans and Colombians appear to by all around,solid conservatives.

Their "social conservatism" sure doesn't show up in any election results, probably because that trait does not in fact exist aside from a VERY small minority of the above-mentioned groups.

We've been told for years that Hispanics are deeply faithful to their Catholic religion and that abortion is repugnant to them, blah, blah, blah.... Yet look how they vote - that says it all.

Many Latin American cultures are conservative in the cultural sense (respect for family, traditional values, Catholic/Christian religous beliefs. etc.) As was pointed out to me, a stable family unit is the only way to survive in societies that undergo continuing political and economic chaos.

But, as was also pointed out to me....once they can come to Ohio and figure out they can get welfare, game over.
