Hispanic shift to GOP underway

 Mike Miller:

...

Memo to the Democrat Party: That shift is already underway. Bigly.

How bigly? A recent poll found that 42 percent of Hispanic Voters have walked away from the Democrats and toward the Republican Party since 2018. That is profound. Warranted, but profound just the same.

According to the latest Rasmussen survey, 48 percent of the Hispanic voters would support a generic Republican on the ballot if the 2024 presidential election were held today, compared to 46 percent for the generic Democrat. Two points. No big deal? Margin of error? Given just three years ago, big deal indeed.

Via Rasmussen (emphasis, mine):

The decline in support for Democrats likely has many causes. In terms of legislation, the president’s Build Back Better plan is weighed down by a large number of extraordinarily unpopular provisions.

Additionally, Democrats are seen as a bigger threat to democracy than Republicans. In their push for election reform, Democrats have sought legislation to outlaw three election reforms that are supported by more than 80 percent of voters.

Beyond specific legislation, there are many broader concerns. Most voters recognize that, compared to pre-pandemic numbers, there are far fewer Americans with a job these days.

Politically, this is a very challenging issue for Democrats. Two-thirds of voters say economic issues are more important than cultural issues. Yet only 37% believe that Democratic politicians and activists are primarily interested in economic issues.

The second bottom line:

Hispanic voters are not going to dutifully line up for decades and dutifully pull the “D” lever. On the contrary, while Democrats pander to Black Lives Matter, Hispanics are clearly saying Policies and Results Matter. 

...

If they were polling border Hispanics they would find that they are fed up with the Biden open borders policies and having illegals wandering through their yards and houses.  They are tired of illegals cutting fences which are costly to repair.  They are tired of Biden inviting the cartel into their country.  Hispanics are some of the most patriotic Americans.  Most of the Border Patrol is made up of Hispanics and Biden has obviously disrespected them.  When it comes to the military Hispanics are some of the first to volunteer.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
