Mason-Dixon is one of the best pollsters out there.  Possibly an outlier, but I doubt it.

Hispanics are generally Cuban, and Republican.  As noted, Hispanics seemed impressed with Romney's debate performance.

You will have to dig through the different reports yourself but it is all there.

There number were as of July 16, 2012.  Also, the earlier numbers, 2004, don't treat Hispanic as a "race."  You have people that are Hispanic, that were registered a number of years ago and identified as white (it is probably 6-10% of the electorate).  There is also the relatively high number of independents that are Hispanics and tend to vote Republican.

Isn't MD traditionally one of the better pollsters in Florida specifically?

The Vorlon considers him the best for FL.  His track record is excellent.

I noticed.  I didn't think it was at first.
