But shouldn't he go Southern Baptist then, rather than Catholic?

Normally I'd say that, but with the huge increases in the Hispanic population....

Hmmm. Could be I guess...

I suspect they're still outnumbered though.

The Hispanic population will exceed that of the non-Hispanic population of Texas in 12 years. The large number of "all or nothing" electoral votes will likely be influential.

Influential sure. But there are 49 other states.

But hey, majority rules, so if they get that many votes, fine with me.

<--- agnostic, socially-liberal, fiscally conservative/capitalist/states-rights/libertarian American who is deeply upset by the wave of fundementalist, creationism-touting zealotry that has swept this country in the past 20 years. There are a lot of us out there and we're getting a little sick of all of this bullshit.
