And that one of the reasons he may have been complacent or lazy is that he assumed they would vote for her and not for him so he blew it off and concentrated on other so-called interest groups, which inPetite Maoistehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05360208394178170783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5789377662277536660.post-54794410718696076552008-06-03T15:03:00.000-04:002008-06-03T15:03:00.000-04:00Dear PM - excuse me, but it seems to me that you e...Dear PM - excuse me, but it seems to me that you excuse Obama's demeaning and infantilizing attitude towards Boricuas (as Taína rightly pointed out) by blaming Hillary insofar as she had the Latino vote anyway?

Overall I think his campaign is good, but as I've discussed lately w/other Latinos/Latin Americans who support him, Obama needs to do his homework when it comes to the situation in Puerto Rico. His statements on the Island were non-committal. Now that he's likely the nominee he cannot fall back on the idea the Latinos in NY will automatically back Hillary or that since FL was a Petite Maoistehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05360208394178170783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5789377662277536660.post-42286412953659322852008-06-03T14:21:00.000-04:002008-06-03T14:21:00.000-04:00her speech is revolting, I do agree, but the more ...her speech is revolting, I do agree, but the more I think about it, the more I get unnerved as well by the jingle of the Obama campaign in PR.

It clearly helped her. She used it to her advantage, and at the end she got the most votes.
