Remember all those claims about how Obama would never win the Hisapanic vote? Turns out it was just more propaganda from the Obama haters that proves out not to be true:

PRINCETON, NJ -- Hispanic registered voters' support for Barack Obama for president remained consistent and strong in June, with Obama leading John McCain by 59% to 29% among this group.

I don't think this is 100% because of McCain. Just read how intolerant of diversity many of his supporters here are and you have wonder if Hispanic voters fear their ill will if he wins.

McCain is just a poor candidate. As a comparison, Bush got 44% of the Hispanic vote in 2004 while Bob Dole got only 25% in 1996.

True - but the Bush years have left a bad taste in a lot of Hispanic mouths. It was a golden opportunity the GOP let slip through their fingers.

They should support Obama. He wants to legalize all their criminal friends so that the democrats can win indefinitely. 20 million new supporters will help them win every election.

Here we go again, when you don't like the numbers it's time to question the integrity of the poll. How predictable.

I could care less about polls. You on the other hand seem to live by them.
