"The surging Hispanic population in several states that figure to be crucial to the outcome of next year's election" -- particularly Florida, Nevada and New Mexico -- "is prompting an early scramble by both parties to influence Hispanic voters," the Wall Street Journal reports.
"The trend is particularly important to President Obama, who has seen his support among white voters sag, putting his hold on several swing states in danger. He is ramping up an urgent effort to win support from Latinos, while Republicans are trying to build on doubts among them about his stewardship of the economy."
