All good points. Where I disagree is with Rubio getting the Palin treatment. Florida is not Wasilla. Rubio does not take any votes away from Romney. Ryan was a safe pick. Safe doesn’t win elections.
I don’t think Alinsky could have made it any more clear. The lefts biggest fear is ridicule. That’s all we had to go with. Nothing else would have worked.
Rubio will not get the EXACT same treatment as Palin, simply because he is a male. The Dems hate females who step out of line, as much as they hate blacks who step out of line.
They would have to put on their thinking caps to figure out exactly how to deride a conservative Latino. They can’t say he’s shrill or call him an Oreo. Maybe they’ll find some more of Gloria’s bimbos. That would go along with their stereotype of Latinos.
