The GOP and Hispanic voters — bad gets worse

Is there any doubt that 2016 will herald the end of the GOP as we knew it? Chit, it's already gone! Quite possibly the 2014 midterms might the pundits, pollsters and trend followers.

Angry white man's club just can't recruit enough Americans. And they're obviously not interested in doing so.

The fucking constitution never said anything about "DOING THE MATH!"

The Insiders: The GOP and Hispanic voters — bad gets worse
By Ed Rogers,
Published: June 28, 2013

To state the obvious, comprehensive immigration reform won’t pass in Congress this year. The Gang of Eight bill that passed in the Senate is a political zombie. The zombie metaphor is overused these days, so I won’t go there. But suffice it to say, the Senate bill isn’t really dead, it is just not relevant to anything the House might do. The House will not pass anything like the 1,000+ page Senate bill — and I doubt there will even be a vote on a bill that includes a “pathway to citizenship” for illegal immigrants who are already here.

It is possible that House Republicans will shake their fists and pass an angry border-protection bill that won’t satisfy anybody and would only serve to highlight the inability of the GOP to deal with immigration in a way that says something positive about the party.

The fact is House GOP leaders do not have a plan. They only know what won’t pass. It is almost impossible to say what could get 218 votes these days.

The rolling debacle of immigration politics continues for the GOP. The only question that remains is how much worse it can get between now and the 2014 midterm elections. Anything the House Judiciary Committee considers will represent the views of the most conservative wing of the party. And it is those views that are most radioactive with Hispanic voters.

Blah.

the right somehow believes they can get enough people to the polls to keep them in the game without courting ethnic groups .. their idea of changing their image last year didn't last long did it?

"they're in their last throes"
Note the lack of a denial by whirlytard.....in recognition that the GOP has no fucking clue what it's doing, the argument becomes "the Hispanic vote doesn't matter"....utterly tone-deaf.

Ed Rodgers is what is wrong with the GOP; he is selling the bullshit that the GOP has to pass amnesty to win elections.

They all say that the Hispanic votes don't matter to the GOP. Problem is that once their in, the Hispanics find that their voices don't matter to the Demon Rats either.
