"Being Hispanic for us means much more than having a surname," said New Jersey Rep. Bob Menendez, a member of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus. "It means having some relationship with the reality of what it is to live in this country as a Hispanic American."

This is the Democrat case against Estrada...

My jaw just dropped! Guess being a conservative makes you not Hispanic! Unbelieveable!

The black caucus did the same thing to J.C. Watts!

Menedez is either really pompous or really stupid to make comments like that one you posted. How do you think Bob would feel if people accused him of "not being Hispanic enough" because his skin was too white or because he has virtually no Spanish accent? Pretty crappy I would think. Every single Hispanic opposed to Estrada is a Democrat and they should be man-enough or woman-enough to admit that the reason they oppose Estrada is not because he isn't a "true" Hispanic, but because he is a Republican that may or may not be conservative.
