That's a slanted analysis. Morales has all kinds of ethical problems, angered the Dem party by on the last day switching from another office to run for gov(thus turning almost all the party support operatives against him), and Sanchez tried to trumpet his connection to a popular Bush.
Morales is a moderate Democrat the way Clinton is a moderate Democrat. This isn't a case of Hispanic Dems freeing Barabas.
We'll see but I live in a Hispanic Area and the Sanchez bumper stickers and posters are being put up all over ---there is great enthusiasm for this liberal crook. These aren't true conservatives by any stretch of the imagination. I wonder if you'd be willing to bet money that Perry doesn't win the majority of the Hispanic vote?
