They voted for Bush because I knocked on their doors and talked to them in a freindly manner. They happen to be pro-life, pro-death penalty, pro-2d amendment. And they don't like to pay taxes. (Who does?) But that is not why they voted for Bush. They voted for Bush because I was friendly to them....and Bush and Fox are friendly. Remember, in the Mexican's view Fox and PAN are pro-life, small business Republican. PRI is Democrat. PRD is Nader Green Socialist.
BTW, I do not profile. I knock on everybody's door: Democrat, white liberal, Catholic, Protestant, Muslim (Yes, in my area they also are conservative Republican but caught between two different factions of conservatives split over personalities, not issues.) I estimate 20% of Blacks voted for Bush in my lower middle class suburban area of union members and hamburger flippers. No doubt about it, in my area, the white liberals are the problem.
The Illinois Republican governor candidate has been hostile to Hispanics. I will not be able to deliver for him. Bush and Fox have given the Republicans a window of opportunity. Texas and Florida might make the most of it. That window of opportunity may never again occur.
Twenty years from now people will look back and ask, "How could those Republicans in Illinois, Colorado (Tancredo) and California be so stupid?" The Supreme court won't allow capital punishment for the stupid. But us stupid people sure can commit suicide.
