No, that is wrong. Hispanics historically are catholic, family oriented voters. They are pro-life, pro-traditional marriage. Many have fled Marxist regimes. They should vote Republican, and did in the 2000 and 2004 elections.

'Fraid not. It's true that Bush got historically high numbers of Hispanics in 2000 and '04. But his percentage of the Hispanic vote both times was in the range of 35-40%.

Normally, the Republican gets no more than 25-30% of the Hispanic vote.

To a degree, these numbers are polluted by the illegal vote -- how can illegal aliens vote in our elections, you might ask -- but we've no way of knowing for sure (other than estimating, with confidence, that approx. 99.9% of the illegal vote is Democrat).
