Losing Latinos
Matt Continetti goes to the LULAC convention to see how McCain and Obama were received. Not a flattering contrast for McCain. And he's trapped in a very GOP bind:
McCain could make drivers licenses for illegal immigrants an issue, but
he's unlikely to do so. It seems he wants to stay as far away from the
immigration issue as possible. That's because the right continues to
distrust McCain, and championing immigration reform won't do anything
to allay that distrust. Look for McCain to mention immigration as
little as possible, and to emphasize border security when he does.
Which means the issue has been ceded to Obama--and with it the Latino
vote.
