It certainly is mind boggling that Romney hasn't fallen farther in the poles in recent days, especially when he says things like, "This race would be a lot easier to win if I were Latino." Who says that? Moreso, who believes that?

Someone who totally forgot about the whole "Obama has taken a shit ton of flak just for being a black guy." Yep. Totally easier to win as a minority.

Obama isn't even a very dark black, and people still flipped shit and jumped immediately to calling him muslim, not American, etc. This is all fuckin' ridiculous.

This year we should vote mk.

You don't think he would have a better shot at the Latino vote if he were Latino himself? He would. I believe that.

Who says that? Someone trying to get the angry white vote.

Yes, I think he would have a better chance at getting the Latino vote if he were Latino. I think he would have a much harder time getting the rest of Republicans to vote for him. He has the angry white vote pretty solidly in his corner. Unfortunately for him (but fortunately for the rest of us), they are no longer 51% of the electorate.
