Actually, Latinos and blacks are at each other’s throats.
Exactly. Latino immigrants tend to have Archie Bunker-style opinions of blacks. It's one of the MSM's many Great Unspoken Truths of American life in 2008.
While that is true, it is typical of the democrats to divide the populus into fragmented groups. The dems do recognize though that eventually, absent some drastic measures toward legal or illegal aliens, Latinos will far surpass the black population in the country. They expect most of those future voters will vote democrat, and anticipate blacks are likely to stay in the fold for a long time.
As for McCain, his teaming up with the likes of Edwards, Lieberman, Kennedy and Feingold on a number of key bills, does not inspire confidence for him to cut a more conservative path if elected to occupy the White House.
A bunch of Hispanics would sit on their hands or vote for McCain rather than support Obama.
