Yeah, big deal! The Hispanic vote is nothing compared to the non-hispanic vote in numbers anyway. Who are they going to vote for instead....a Republican candidate who views amnesty in an even harsher light?

Laughable, isn’t it? They will either vote for Obama, or they won’t vote. Either way, who cares? They certainly won’t vote for a Republican, so why the idle threats. Obama will get their votes by promising amnesty during his second term, and they’ll buy it hook, line, and sinker.

Guiterrez was the guy that "promised" to ditch his seat in Congress and form his own party if the Dream Act didn't pass, remember?

He's an expert on "broken promises"

That’s right, he did threaten to leave the Dem party if the Nightmare Act didn’t pass. I wonder what happened.

Oh, and let’s not forget the fearless Tequila Party.

First the GOP had lost the Hispanic vote. Now Obama might have trouble with them. Which is it? When will these ethnocentric jokers stop with their racist rhetoric and empty threats?

You will have to pose that question to the “paranoid media.” However, there are more than “Hispanic” eligible voters in this country. A fact some seem to forget.
