That didn't really help the Republicans with the Black vote much. I'd believe the Hispanics were becoming Conservative if they called in to Rush's show to support the nomination of a Black or White Conservative, not just for a Hispanic. I don't think race cards should be used because they can backfire. If nominating a Hispanic (as opposed to nominating a Conservative no matter the race) is the only way to get their votes, then they aren't true Conservatives. I voted for Keyes ---not because he was black but because he was a Conservative, I didn't care the race.
