CPAC Desperately Tries To Square The GOP’s Circle With Latinos On Immigration Reform

IMO i don't think Rubio is a good thing for Hispanics, if for no otherreason then he supports whole heartedly the right wing hate agenda. 

sure he's not naive enough to think they are going to really accept tem when statistics show the are the largest rising American voters and the exception of the few tokens they have that support and purport the same hate and bigotry as always is going to bring masses of Latino's to the fold?  

regardless to one's ethnicity and race he picks up the same fleas as those he lies down with.

Winning back Latino voters wasn’t a side issue on CPAC’s first day. It was the issue.

Organizers may have purged center-right speakers like Chris Christie from this year’s event, but when it came to immigration it was a whole other world. Panels, speeches, and breakout sessions galore featured Latino or pro-immigration Republicans who warned of impending doom if the party didn’t abandon its usual hardline ways.

It didn’t always go over well. The mere mention, by Texas Gov. Rick Perry, of calls to shift the party’s appeal to the growing Latino demographic drew boos from the crowd. But the overwhelmingly pro-reform schedule reflected deep-seated fears among conservative leaders that population trends could turn the GOP into a minority party for decades if the immigration issue isn’t addressed soon.

Perhaps not surprisingly, the most forceful speech on the topic came from a pollster, Whit Ayres, who all but fell to his knees and begged Republicans to pass comprehensive reform.

Ayres’ case should sound familiar by now: 71 percent of Latino voters pulled the lever for President Obama in 2012, according to CNN’s exit polls (other estimates put Obama’s margin even higher), and the Latino share of the electorate is growing rapidly. Unless the GOP changed immediately, Ayres claimed, they faced a disaster of Biblical proportions in which demographically unstoppable liberals would destroy every last vestige of American life that Republicans hold dear. We’re talking “75 percent marginal tax rates,” “entrepreneurs fleeing,” “gagging debt,” a “cradle to grave government.” Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together — mass hysteria!

regardless to public entertainment by the right wing they still are republicans and as they like to say "we don't have to change our values" kinda puts the nail in the coffin of change don't you think?
