Texas mid-term could show changed support of Hispanics

 Washington Examiner:

Biden's withering Hispanic support met with Republican faith-based outreach

...

 And with the Republican National Committee borrowing from the playbook of conservative organizations such as the Faith and Freedom Coalition, Democrats may face the fallout as soon as March 1, when Texas convenes its 2022 midterm primary elections.

...

A dominant part of Alvarez's strategy is organizing faith community voter registration drives, and she estimates that 99 out of 100 forms collected are for Republicans despite her coalition's nonpartisan status.

"If Hispanics and evangelicals haven't figured out what their vote should look like in the midterm elections, I'm pretty sure Joe Biden is helping them figure that out," she said.

...

 "We see a lot, lot of potential that's based on shared values with Hispanics and Republicans: pro-life, pro-family, pro-opportunity, pro-law enforcement," she said. "We're able to share our values and really just get to know the community members who haven't traditionally voted Republican or just don't really know what the Republican Party stands for."

... 

Much of the change is being led by Hispanic women in Texas who are also running for office as Republicans.

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
