Latino Lawmakers Upset Over Clinton Camp Shake-Up
By Patrick Healy
The anger in the Hispanic community over the ousting of Patti Solis Doyle as Senator Hillary Rodham Clintons campaign manager continues to unfold, with two Hispanic legislators from Mrs. Clintons home state sending an open letter to her expressing their concerns.
______________________________________________________
Dear Senator Clinton:
... We are inclined to believe that Patti Solis Doyle did resign, we would like you to realize that it will be very troubling to many if somehow we later find that she left her post under pressure because of the recent primary losses your campaign suffered.
If so, we will have many questions about why a Hispanic woman who has helped to build Latino support for you throughout the nation would have been the one to take the blame and resign from her post instead of others involved with your campaign, including former President Clinton, who have caused serious problems and embarrassing situations for your campaign.
Sincerely,
Senator Rev. Ruben Diaz
Assemblyman Jose Peralta
32nd Senate District
39th Assembly District
The Bronx and Queens

Serious pandering to begin in 5...4...3...2...
Hillary, you about to learn the price of pandering.
Karl Rove didn’t, and drove the Republicans into the minority.
Well, they shouldn’t complaint. Solis was only fired, she didn’t get the Ft Marcy Park treatment.
Clinton isn’t worried. It is not like they will vote for McCain.
Now latinos know what it;s like to be a black Democrat.
The blacks had best get used to being played out in favor of the hispanic voters in the same way that we are being played out by the GOP in the exact same manner.
McCain/Kennedy embraces two parties ...
Really. This is too rich. They say they would like to believe her, but will be upset if they later find our they’ve been lied to!!!! Depend on what the meaning of Sol-is is, I guess. And these are supposed to be her supporters.
“The anger in the Hispanic community”
A figment and fulfillment of the white urban liberal imagination.
Heh, heh, she served her purpose in Nevada, California, etc. Now Hillary need the ruthless Ms. Williams back.
Said queen Hillary: Just shut up and vote for me - peasants.
Is that kind of like the Arab street?
We need pictures.
Ooops....
so, some latina chick who was unqualified to run a national presidential campaign and was mostly just a figurehead anyways (and most latinos didn’t know from Adam) get fired and suddenly they are crying Holocaust!!!???
Thou douth protest too much.
With Texas coming up next month, there has got to be one heck of a backstory behind Solis Doyle being shoved out. Does Hillie think she’s got a lock on the Hispanic vote but needs help with the black bloc so here comes Maggie Williams? Or has Bubba been a bad boy again? Both? Neither?
Quick! Pardon some more FALN terrorists! (Oh, wait . . . the Queen cannot).

Very good.
Mickey Kaus on Slate calls it “Hispandering.”
And, by the way, who wrote that letter? Is this like an English as a second language problem?
