Sheriff Joe will continue to deport the illegals so I don't give a shit. As long as they are in the country legally I have no issues at all.

a little more demographic change and the hispanics will be 'deporting' Sheriff Joe. Especially, if he decides
to run for Senate.

Slick there are two groups of Hispanics included in the numbers that you are counting that will not vote the way you think they should. The problem with you and the writer of the MSN piece is you don't have a clue about the American Southwest and the Hispanic population that lives here. Don't get your hopes up!

You're speaking to the guy who thinks he knows it all. I didn't want to spend time educating him that those that are here legally and can lawfully vote don't typically like the illegals. They think it makes all hispanics look bad.

so, the fact that California, which long was a tossup/bellweather state, has turned solidly Democratic is meaningless? Or,the effect of the Hispanic population increase on Democratic party advances in Colorado and Nevada doesn't fall into 'the Southwest'? It isn't about my hopes, it's the realization that the GOP has pissed away a golden opportunity(via, ironically, the Bush family), and will pay for years. Other, more easterly examples: North Carolina and Florida, which have moved from solid GOP to tossups.
