A while back, (before the election) blogger Udolpho correctly predicted the Republican Party's defeat in the recent elections, and
wrote that, among other failures, Bush's
"pandering to Mexicans hasn't made them hate America any less—if anything they hate us more because they are contemptuous of our weakness.*"The footnote that goes with that asterisk is these extremely interesting tables:
