The title of this thread is particularly apt tonight--though obviously Tancredo has to take a back seat to Mr. Bush, who is truly Democrats' best friend.   But look at Obama's victories in CO, NV and NM--all 3 of the states I mentioned earlier. Hispanics played a huge role--and his share of them is way up from Kerry's share--due in large part to the incredibly stupid stance of the Republican party on the illegal immigration issue, placing themselves squarely on the wrong side of demographics.

His success in the 3 states mentioned is the sort of thing that makes Obama a national leader--not just winner on the east and west coasts.
