President Obama has widened his already substantial lead over Mitt Romney among Hispanics, according to a Latino Decisions poll released on Wednesday. Obama takes 70 percent of the Hispanic vote, compared to Romney at 22. It’s the first time Obama has hit 70 percent in the poll, and the 48-point margin is the widest for the president so far, up from his June lead of 66 percent to 23. Last month, Obama announced that his administration would stop deporting illegal immigrants who come to the country at a young age and meet certain requirements. The directive is particularly popular among Hispanics, with more than 90 percent of those surveyed saying they’re in favor of the policy change. Both campaigns are waging aggressive efforts to win over the key demographic. On Wednesday, the Romney campaign released its ninth Spanish-language ad of the cycle, a 30-second spot called, “País de Inmigrantes,” or “Country of Immigrants,” that features Romney's son Craig touting his father's understanding of immigrant issues. But the president's directive has placed Republicans on the defensive, with Romney's campaign caught between Hispanic outreach efforts and large segments of the GOP base, which regard the new policy as amnesty. After Obama’s announcement, Romney offered support for easing deportations, but said he believed the decision could make it more difficult to achieve comprehensive immigration reform. Romney also opposes the DREAM Act immigration reform proposal, which is overwhelmingly popular among Hispanics — 87 percent support it, according to the poll — and has praised Arizona’s controversial immigration law, the majority of which was struck down by the Supreme Court in June. Obama will need to maximize turnout among this key constituency in what is lining up to be a tight election, especially in swing-states like Florida, Virginia, Nevada and Colorado that have large Hispanic populations. The Latino Decisions poll of 504 registered Hispanic voters was conducted between July 7 and July 16, and has a 4 percent margin of error.

Mitt's got the edge since his father George hopped the border from Mexico.
Obama's watch stopped on 24 May 2008, but he's been too busy smoking crack to notice.
Which in other words means the key constituency of illegal immigrants.

Yukon and the other RINO's say they are natural born conservatives.
----------------------------------------------------------- One hand spammed as the other whacked With no Goldi there to redact Too distracted to be thinking Which url he was linking So now Yukon claims "I wuz hacked!"
Translation: Viva la Raza, Viva Aztlan, vote Mitt for amnesty! Obama's watch stopped on 24 May 2008, but he's been too busy smoking crack to notice.
Hondo, the camel's nose is in the tent:

BS. Moses, Abraham and everyone else between the garden of eden and the crucifixion went to hell? Purgatory for those who obeyed God I could believe, maybe. If Muhammad's lies cost Muslims their souls, then so will Joseph Smith's lies that Jesus was the son of Satan, cost Mormon's their souls! Mormons are going to hell, and Mitt(Satan's son) voters too, unless they repent! They're Satan worshipers. Israel of the Bible is long gone, get over it! Christians don't need the Messiah deniers and their fake new, (state of) "Israel" to get to heaven. The new fake Israelis and MitTard Mormons, can join the Muslims in the lake of fire, no problem.

Perhaps your answer is in Hebrews chapters 11-12. Take a gander at that and let me know if it tightens the shot group a bit.

17 For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears. 18 For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest, 19 And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more: 20 (For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart: 21 And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:) 22 But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, 23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, As far as I can make out (18)... they're not on the mount, or blackness, or darkness, or tempest. Nor apparently in the lake of fire... but in some middle place, "purgatory" for want of a better word? In 24 they (if they're not total F' ups) get a shot at redemption from Jesus? Obama's watch stopped on 24 May 2008, but he's been too busy smoking crack to notice.
LMAO! What the hell does it matter what a few hundred Hispanic type folks think?
No "purgatory". I see you focused on chapter 12. Please see chapter 11 where it is stated: 13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off were assured of them,[c] embraced them and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. 14 For those who say such things declare plainly that they seek a homeland. 15 And truly if they had called to mind that country from which they had come out, they would have had opportunity to return. 16 But now they desire a better, that is, a heavenly country. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.(NKJV) I think this is the key to understanding the OT saints.
