Depends on how you look at it.

I am pretty happy the guys who immigrated in from Tennessee did grab the dictator Santa Ana by his peasant tunic and throw him out, and set up a new republic based on the USA. It sure worked out great for everyone lining in Texas, especially from the MLK era on.
Now, had this land stayed under the control of those "Spanish speaking people, or the descendants of people who where living here before Union rules", would it have been any different than that glorious paradise of prosperity, freedom, and security called Mexico we all know love? I think not.
