Nothing need be explained, the facts speak for themselves. Obama's ad on Spanish television accused McCain of being associated with bigoted commentary and of being anti-Immigration, based on an obvious lie intended to get an emotional reaction from minority voters. It worked in Colorado where the pole takers found a massive jump in support for Obama among hispanic voters. "The most egregious example of Obama's shifting strategy is a new Spanish-language ad called "Dos Caras." Airing in the crucial Southwestern swing states of Colorado, New Mexico and Nevada, the spot attempts to equate McCain with Rush Limbaugh on immigration. As a picture of the conservative talk-radio host appears onscreen beneath a pair of bigoted-sounding quotes--"Mexicans are stupid and unqualified" and "Shut your mouth or get out"--John McCain and his Republican friends have two faces." What part of that is too difficult for you to get?
