Obama leads in battle for Latino vote

Wait, you mean losing a demographic of voters in the primary to your Democratic opponent does not equate to losing that same demographic in the general election to your Republican opponent? But the media kept telling us this was true. Funny, nobody could have predicted that there was no correlation. Oh wait, yes we did. LA Times:

A new Gallup Poll summary of surveys taken in May shows Obama winning 62% of Latino registered voters nationwide, compared with just 29% for McCain. Others have found a wide gap as well. The pro-Democratic group Democracy Corps compiled surveys from March through May that showed Obama with a 19-point lead among Latinos. And a Times poll published last month showed Obama leading McCain among California Latinos by 14 points.

Republicans say McCain's numbers among Latinos at the moment are disappointing...
Yeah, you think?
