So there are Hispanic voters who are voting McCain solely because they don't want a Black president, utterly without regard for McCain's positions on anything (not that it matters as he flip-flops every five minutes).
This makes me want to tear my hair out.
We've got a situation where some people refuse to vote for a female president, some people refuse to vote for a Black president ... for no other reasons ... and choose to vote for McCain because he's White and Male. Period.
I just hope there are still enough thoughtful, reasoned voters to balance out the knee-jerk bigots.
