Looks like the Latino vote will be largely going to Barack Obama instead of John McCain this November … if results of a Pew Hispanic Center survey are any predictor.
Of Hispanic registered voters surveyed, 66 percent support Obama, 23 percent McCain, according to a report released today by the Pew Hispanic Center.
The key issues for these voters are education, cost of living, jobs and health care. Following closely behind are crime, the war in Iraq, and immigration.

Nobody surveyed me or any of the other educated and informed Hispanics I know. Because I can tell you that we will be voting for McCain. Maybe I need to hang out at Home Depot more often so that I can be included in these BS surveys.
McCain would win in a landslide if he took a tough stance on illegal immigration. I don’t see why he (and other candidates) don’t get it. They must not read any of the comments on the various websites pertaining to illegal immigration.
