The Price the GOP Is Paying For anti-Hispanic Language

Fox News and Latin Insights polled the Hispanic community about its attitudes toward this coming presidential election. Keep in mind that President Obama has averaged an approval rating among liberals of 85%, way higher than his average approval, which ranges from 45 to 50% at any given time. President Obama has a 73% approval rating among Latin voters, 58% of them approve of the job he is doing on the economy.

The best a Republican rival does against President Obama is a stunning 14%--this is way lower than even I have been writing.

The kicker for the GOP should be--if they are listening--that 40% of Hispanics who voted for John McCain will not vote for a Republican--ever again. From the fastest growing voting block in the country, this is devastating. With Mitt Romney still pushing his "self-deport" scheme and backed by Sheriff Arpaio I don't think this number is going to turn around anytime soon.
