Texas Hispanics are about 60% in Hillarys favor, period.  She's huge here in San Antonio.

Call me suspicious, but given the current level of Lou Dobbs style "they are trying to take over our country" rhetoric , isn't it amazing that the only two campaign finance "hit" stories have involved brown or yellow people?  What, they couldn't find any white bundled donors to make an issue of?  

The controversy is over the thing you refuse to posit as a possibility - that all the money comes from the rich guy, who is using the poorer people as props.

If a Republican were doing that, you would be outraged.  Instead, you try to wave the bloody shirt of racism.

Michigan lawyer Geoffrey Fieger was indicted last month on allegations of conspiring to make more than $125,000 in illegal bundled contributions to the 2004 presidential campaign of John Edwards, who declined to identify his bundlers during that campaign. The indictment alleges that Mr. Fieger's law firm reimbursed employees for their contributions by disguising them as bonuses and repaid contractors by calling the amounts payments for services.

Though his former law firm came under indictment more than a year ago and he himself appeared likely to face criminal charges, prominent trial lawyer William S. Lerach slipped past the vetting of John Edwards' presidential campaign and was permitted to raise large amounts of money for the Democrat's 2008 bid.

Lerach, his family and members of his new law Lerach Coughlin law firm accounted for nearly $78,000 in donations to Edwards' campaign in the first half of this year, making the trial lawyer one of the North Carolina Democrat's leading "bundlers" of contributions.

The chairman of Fred Thompson's First Day Founders fundraising group has resigned after reports surfaced that he had been arrested on charges of cocaine trafficking and bookmaking in the 1980s.

I'm from Texas, even lived in McAllen, at one point, oh.. and I'm also one of those brown people you are telling to be offended.  I, however, read the article and not just your misleading quotes, some I'm not.

This article mentions something that is true. Due to NAFTA and a host of other issues, the Clinton's are very popular with Hispanics and especially the Hispanic business community from San Antonio south. This accounts for the majority of the Clinton's fundraising success.

The problem this article points out is that this guy is coercing people to give money.  As is noted the Texas Boarder area has a low median income and some of the highest unemployment in the nation.  Lots of people living in poverty.  When one of the largest sources of work is forcing people to give checks to a campaign, i think it raises a serious ethical issue.

Because of his financial interests, Cantu's influence over potential donors is substantial. He has raised money from doctors who work at the hospital where he holds an ownership interest, from bankers who work at the bank he co-owns and from the scores of tradesmen who contract with his primary business, Cantu Construction and Development Co., one of the town's dominant residential and commercial builders.

Here is one donor even admitting why he gave money:

"When Alonzo comes through the door, you want to give to him," said Gerardo J. Reyna, Cantu's brother-in-law. Reyna owns McAllen Carpet & Interiors, a company that provides close to 90 percent of the floor coverings in Cantu-built homes and offices. "The last thing you want to do is get on Alonzo's bad side," he said with a smile. Reyna donated $1,000 to Clinton.

I guess if you are in the Cult of Clinton any means of winning is acceptable.
