and yes, I know he's not going to be, but it's just a hypothetical. But what House seats would the GOP lose as a result? The effect he'd have on the Hispanic vote would be absolutely devastating to the GOP.

I'm actually pretty confident Lampson would hang on. Wilson would be a goner. Also at least one other GOP Congressman from a heavily Hispanic district in Texas and probably one in California thought to be safe would go down as well. This would also be what it takes to finally put a stake through Musgrave's heart.

If you mean president I think we would gain seats like AZ-8 and AZ-5

Yeah, the Tancredo-esque candidate sure did well in AZ-8 last year. And J.D. Hayworth's Tancredo-esque positions also helped him out a ton in AZ-5.
