This should offend you whether you are Latino or not. As reported by Jeremy W. Peters in yesterday's New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/...), Republicans are running ads for the Senate in states with low percentages of eligible Latino voters that are fear mongering, pandering to racists, and focused on illegal immigration and border "lawlessness". In contrast, when Senate races are taking place in states with high percentages of eligible Latino voters, they are running ads trying to suck up to the Latino community. So do they really care about any issues related to immigration? Of course not. They care about the Latino vote in states where the numbers are high, and they don't care at all about losing the Latino vote in states where the numbers are low.
Which is the real Republican? Who cares? If someone pretends to be your friend while telling their racist buddies how they really feel, are they your friend? If someone pretends to be racist "just for the votes" but claims to really be your friend, are they your friend? No. And no. I don't want anything to do with someone who will go behind my back instead of having my back. Ever. They will not receive my vote.
So let's look at the evidence. Judge for yourself. I've watched all these sickening ads and transcribed them so that you don't have to watch. But as always, the links are here if you wish to follow my trail. The numbers in parentheses after each state are the percentage of Latino voters among all eligible voters, per http://www.pewhispanic.org/.... In the country as a whole, this number is 10.7%. But what a difference a state makes.
More after the orange symbol of perversely twisted language.
