Hispanics swing to Democrats in West...
Public Policy Polling reports: http://publicpolicypolling.blogspot.com/2010/05/immigration-bill-fallout.html



When we polled Colorado in early March Michael Bennet and Jane Norton were tied. Last week we found Bennet with a 3 point lead. One of the biggest reasons for that shift? Bennet went from leading Norton by 12 points with Hispanic voters to a 21 point advantage. That large shift in a Democratic direction among Hispanics mirrors what we saw in our Arizona Senate polling last month- Rodney Glassman went from trailing John McCain by 17 points with them in September to now holding a 17 point lead.

This has always been Democrats' belief about immigration politics: That among the voters for whom this is a single, motivating issue, whites may get more attention, but Hispanics are more numerous. Numbers like this would be a huge problem for Steve Poizner in California, should he get the nomination

7. All you have to repeat over and over again is that crazy white men
are being allowed to storm the houses of latinos to murder their families.

Believe me, we all know more than a few crazy white men wherever we live in the US.
