Cubans and Argentians, on the other hand, are not so much in favor of governmenthandouts and tend to be more politically conservative.

So phoey on the "Hispanic Block" theory.
I know some Mexican Americans who would disagree strongly about the Mexican Americans liking handouts.

I think maybe you have hoisted yourself on your own petard!

And I would be very interested in seeing a poll where it shows that Hispanics as a group (monolythic though they may not be) like Obama equally to Caucasians.

After all European Americans are hardly a monolythic group either.
