It's going to be really interesting to see which of the prevailing issues dominates the Hispanic vote. They're a much more diverse voting bloc than black voters and they only slightly favor Democrats. It's an interesting mix. They're no small party like you said.

Exactly right. I don't think you can underestimate the communication factor. I think he has a real shot. People are fickle and with the proper media strategy, the name Bush could take on new meaning. I'm old enough to where he's going to have an uphill battle, but the younger voters may not even recall his brother.
