A woman holds a sign that reads "Hispanics for Mitt"during the Republican National Convention at the Tampa Bay Times Forum on August 28, 2012 in Tampa, Florida. Today is the first full session of the RNC after the start was delayed due to Tropical Storm Isaac.

There are over 50 million Latinos in the U.S. According to the Pew Hispanic Center, nine percent of the electorate in 2008 was Latino and two-thirds of them voted for Barack Obama in 2008.

With polls showing a tight race with 64 day until Election Day, even the seemingly galvanizing issue of immigration fails to produce political consensus. Will how Latinos vote in 2012 be the decisive factor in who wins the presidency in 2012?
