NM: Public Policy Polling: Obama leads by nine

[TheGlobalizer]

Johnson will take mid-high single digits here, and has popularity among moderate Dems, so not sure what to do with this poll.  Obama certainly leads but turnout could shift a lot.  If Romney gets a little nicer on immigration issues (just being a pragmatist rather than an ideologue would help), NM could approach being in play.

Oh come on.  Be serious.  Its like 45% white!

Hispanics here are not all immigrants.  Many families predate the US so they distribute more normally than other immigrant-heavy Hispanic populations.

Yeah, yeah.  No chance in NM.  I'm quite willing to believe Romney will win the election, but he'll do it solely based on whites.  That's his strategy, after all.

I don't disagree.  Wish he'd lay off the veiled racism, especially with his Mexican roots, since there's a very good pragmatic case for meaningful immigration reform.
