I heard the opinion that while "Latinos" voted for Obama, they also voted against gay marriage in California.

The idea is that "what's in it for me" versus general background beliefs is being overlooked by political bean counters. They are expecting political loyalty by race - not necessarily a fact.

Once again, race is not an indicator of nationality, language, culture, religion, or political belief. The Media and the politicians seem to believe it so, and are dumbfounded when their racial expectations are not met.
