"The Gallup poll showed that Obama’s support among Hispanics fell almost a third in the last 18 months, down from 73 percent in December 2009 to 52 percent in June 2011. That’s very bad news for Democrats, because Obama’s re-election strategy depends on a Hispanic landslide in swing states such as Florida and Virginia. Over the last few months, Obama has met several times with Hispanic opinion-leaders, including news, radio and entertainment personalities, because he needs to spur a massive turnout of Hispanic supporters in 2012."
Okay, Obama can hold his meetings, conferences, workshops, etc. with Hispanics but the way I see it, Hispanics are going to vote just like a lot of other people -- on jobs.
He promised them amnesty ("path to citizenship") and that has not come to pass.
At the 1 year Presidency mark they voiced their anger and he told them he'd be working on it.
We are now in year 3 and there's no hint of amnesty except for the few EO's he's signed.
I think the Hispanics are waking up.

Your right. About freakin time, that some are starting to wake up to the Fast talking Obama, tells ya what you want to hear, but takes no action on it.

Nowhere did Obama promise amnesty. If anything he's against amnesty (remember the right wing goon that had a childish outburst during Obama's speech where he said the new healthcare plan will NOT cover illegals?)
He's also arrested and deported more illegals than anyone has since the 50's. Obama's stances so far have been anti-amnesty/illegals.
If the right think they are going to switch and vote republican, not a chance.
