On Wed, 21 Jul 2004, the Washington Post was quoted as saying

Which sounds like a real blow to them. I mean they worked hard on this, and it's a demographic of the future (i.e., it's expanding). Except two paragraphs later we learn:
> The findings suggest that, at this point in the campaign, Bush is

is another way of saying they voted 2-1 against him last time. So actually this isn't big news. He's not improving his position with Latinos, but it's not clear he's falling behind either. He seems to be holding perfectly steady with this group.
