Here's a Gallup table which shows that Congressional voting preferences among Hispanics (and blacks and whites) have not changed since the Arizona illegal immigration law was passed. And notice the famous 2-to-1 Hispanic preference for Democrats.
Republican leaders are willing to let Hispanic immigration destroy the long-term prospects of the party, and for what? So their fellow elites won't think they're bigots. They'll be unemployed, but at least they won't get called names.

Are these the figures Ann Coulter referenced?
How much of the Hispanic lean to Democrats can be explained by the usual factors (income, age etc)?
Also interesting: according to the sample sizes, right at 88% of the voters questioned were non-Hispanic whites.
Not sure if that's reflective of actual primary voting patterns, or willingness to answer Gallup pollsters. But worth noting at least.
