WASHINGTON, D.C. -- McCain appealed to Hispanic voters Saturday with a message against raising taxes and highlighting his patriotism alongside Latinos during the Vietnam War.
McCain told the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials it is a “terrible mistake to raise taxes during an economic downturn” and said increasing business and individual tax rates could hurt Latino businesses.

The McCainster goes on to say...
“We will not succeed in the Congress of the United States until we convince a majority of American people that we have border security,” McCain said. “But that does not have to be in an inhumane or cruel fashion.”
Perhaps a more ardent McCainiac can tell me why I should believe the guy. (But no worries if you can't. I still plan to get liquored up and vote for him.)
...I should add that the Al P story that got pulled mentioned that The Obamessiah is also wooing Hispanics.
I will believe the border is sealed when I see it. Even then, if McLame and Congress think that is then a license for Shamnesty II, they have another think coming.
He behaves as a man who doesn’t want to win. I look for Conservatives to leave him hanging out to dry, and frankly, I can’t say as I blame them. He has squandered opportunity after opportunity and left Conservatives wilting on the vine more than once.

Go get em John: You lost me forever. . . .
Why do we always go back to this? We will not win without hispanics. McCain has already said the border must be secured and the governers certify it is secure. I suppose he is hoping that will convince the majority. I don’t see anything nefarious in that though.
“We will not succeed in the Congress of the United States until we convince a majority of American people that we have border security,” McCain said.”
Oh, brother! “Until we CONVINCE a majority of the American people that we have border security.”
A big time Freudian slip, I’d say. What not actually have border security, Juan, rather than playing word games and hedging on every statement.
He has NO intention of overseeing any real border security.
.. and while they're at it, how about one more favor, please?
Would some McCain supporter (avid supporter that is, we all intend to choose him over the Messiah -- Sorry, Holy One) explain why supporting a zillion people breaking U.S. immigration, perjury, and document fraud laws is something that Americans of Hispanic origin seek?
Is McCain, et al saying that Hispanics have no respect for our heritage as a Nation of Laws? They are all inveterate lawbreakers? Ain't that an insult?
I will believe that the border is sealed and we are actually enforcing the laws when about 25% or more of the population where I live leaves.
“Perhaps a more ardent McCainiac can tell me why I should believe the guy.”
I’m not a strong suporter of the backstabbing creep but I would like to give you a reason to believe him; He has that shiny “R” after his name.
(kind of like a wolf that has that nice fluffy sheep skin)
“McCain has already said the border must be secured and the governers certify it is secure.”
All 4 governors are open borders traitors. They would say that it is secure right now to get the shamnesty that they want for “The Race.”
Then move the ‘fences’ northward to the next states (or eastward and north in the case of Kalifornia....
R for RINO... Gets ‘em every time!
Oh well, a couple o' shots of Cazadores and I'll be fine come election day.
In any case, I won't be voting for him.
Juan McLame is only concerned about the illegals. No to McPain and Osamabama. I’ll vote 3rd party or write in a conservative for prez. I will probably vote for the other Pubbies for other offices,even though the’ll probably lose up to 70 seats in the house and 10+ in the senate.
