Note the vote last year on the TX gay marriage amendment - almost 70% voted down gay marriage for the state, and Hispanics overwhelmingly rejected it. I know a Democratic fundraiser here who is hopeless about the future of the party in TX because the white Dems in TX are so socially liberal but the hispanics are socially conservative. She doesn't think the party is viable anymore.<BR/><BR/>However, the same Mexicans are very fiscally liberal, paying high taxes without a peep, embracing boondoggle "affordable housing" ventures at the municipal level, and joining labor unions when they can. <BR/><BR/>I think long term this stuff spells disaster for TX. In 20 years it will be like a homophobic California.WinChoicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10691873190339646368noreply@blogger.com
