El Presidente está marchitando “Rapido y Furioso”

[MacMattico]

Wait... Is Florida an anomaly because of the Cuban population? ‘Cuz if Obama’s below 50% in other heavily Hispanic states, he's beyond toast— he should quit now!

[P-Marlowe]

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

[Perdogg]

First the Jewish vote, now the Hispanic vote.

[bmwcyle]

What about the midget vote?

[Teacher317]

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.

I was talking to a lady yesterday who told me that 4 years ago she worked with Hispanics for Obama here in Mobile. Said six months after the election she asked herself what the heck she’d done by voting for him.....the group leader called her earlier this week to ask if she’d work this year and when she said no, that she was voting for Romney, the “friend” (they’ve been best friends since they were 13) cussed her out and hung up on her. Libs are sooooooo civil, aren’t they!

[9YearLurker]

Yeah, the Cubans have a good deal of political sense.

[Mikey_1962]

My wife is a Mexican National (here legally after several thousand dollars to lawyers) just got her citizenship and she HATES Obama.

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.

*************************************************

Yes, The majority of Cubans are republican, and we have a huge Cuban population. I would love this to be true across the county, but I don't think Florida is a good predictor of how Hispanics will vote.

re: Wait... Is Florida an anomaly because of the Cuban population?

Yes, I think Florida is an anomaly. In Nevada the Hispanic support for Obama has not wavered. In fact, the increased Hispanic population is one of the major reasons why the state has gone blue in recent years after decades of being a red state.

[redfreedom]

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.

[adorno]

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%.

Actually, that would get Obama way below 50% of the Hispanic vote, since a large portion of the population of those states is the Hispanic (mostly Mexican, legal and illegal) voters.

Democrats would never win the presidency again.

[Hotlanta Mike]

With Biden’s performance on Thursday they lost the women’s vote as well.

[freeangel]

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.

[pallis]

All the gay Hispanics will vote for Obama.

[Perdogg]

In the latest SurveyUSA poll for Nevada, hispanic support for Obama was 54 to 41 percent, 10-15 points below his 2008 level.
