LMAO, this coming from a Californian that can't even hold on to his guns. Come back and lecture Texas when you get your socialist paradise in order.

You're whistling past the graveyard Tex. Your state's demographics may not be as far along as California's but they're moving that way. The day's coming and Jorge Bush's amnesty schemes will see that it comes sooner than later.

Yes and our Hispanic population went 60% Bush in 2000. I am not afraid of them, you seem to be terrified. It is laughable. No not laughable, un-manly.

While Perry is brushing up on his Spanish lingo for a debate with Sanchez, I hope he learns that "huevos" mean more than eggs.

Heck no! I am simply saying that Perry is weak among grassroots conservatives. That is a fact. Perry will need massive turnout, and I mean massive, among Republican enclaves to offset the huge Hsipanic surge in the south end of the state.

Isn't illegal immigration beautiful? Well at least Jorge Bush seems to think so. Yeah they just come here to work and of course illegally vote in our election too. Somehow that "Don't Mess With Texas" slogan doesn't sound so tough anymore...does it?

President Bush will never be Texas Governor any more. Why should it make a damn difference who sits in the state house in Austin next year? He's already where he always wanted to be.

from hispanicmagazine.com (and elsewhere)

"Both leading presidential candidates, Republican George W. Bush and Democrat Al Gore, aggressively campaigned for the Hispanic vote, but Gore received the majority of that vote-64 percent-with only 32 percent voting for Bush... Bush did better in his home state of Texas, where he drew 43 percent of the Latino vote. "

43 percent - I guess that's kind of like "60" and kind of like "winning".
You're not concerned because you're not informed. But at least you're manly.

Luis is that you? I'll tell you I smell an ethnic hustler when you post, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. You will have to admit the culture of Texas is moving towards being more like the rest of America and less of a conservative bastion then it once was. I do see a lot of Blue on that electoral map of Tejas and I'll bet with a Sanchez on the ticket rappin' in Spanish up against some weak kneed eunuch of an "Anglo" it gets a bunch Bluer.

He is not "manly" in any sense of the word. His tactic is the one of a school yard bully.

The GOP's myopia on immigration come home to roost.

I was thinking the exact same thing. And Bush wants to grant more amnesty. I absolutely detest Sanchez and his use of the race card so I will vote for Perry. However, I will not vote for Bush in 2004.

I've been saying this for years! If George W. Bush doesn't take his head out of his ass, we'll lose our country! We've lost California, New Mexico, and Florida; we're on the brink of losing Colorado and Arizona - all because of immigration.

And Texas will be next. Perry will be lucky to win. He needs conservatives to get out and vote, because the illegals sure as hell will.
