It’s hard to predict much about November 2008 from the vantage point of November 2007. But one thing is going to be a demographic certainty: the road to the White House passes through the Latino community.
The importance of the Latino vote in next year’s elections is getting some attention thanks to the Democratic presidential debate in Nevada, a key early primary state where almost a quarter of voters are Latino.
The Latino vote has also gotten brief mention in some print media over the past year.
But this story — really, this growing reality — is not breaking through on cable news, or gaining a strong presence on the web. Candidates in both parties should be reminded of the scope of Latino electoral clout across the nation, and the momentous consequences of the Latino vote on who wins in 2008 and beyond.”*
