Estupido: Juan Hernandez gives dumb advice; McCain takes it
Michelle Malkin.com ^ | 7/07/2008 | Michelle Malkin

Whose idea was it to send John McCain down to Mexico the day before Independence Day and have him grovel for Latino votes south of the border by visiting the Basilica de Guadalupe–a famed Catholic shrine featuring the image of the Virgin of Guadalupe, which most Mexican politicians consider off-limits for campaigning?

According to Frentes Politicos (hat tip - reader Edgar M.), the stunt was the brainchild of none other than McCain’s open-borders Hispanic outreach director and former Mexican cabinet official Juan Hernandez, who apparently survived the big campaign staff shake-up:

McCain’s visit last week confounded Mexicans, irked grass-roots American conservatives, and failed to mollify the un-mollify-able shamnesty forces on either side of the border. All for one cheap, pandering photo-op.

I'm mollified. McCain's approach to illegal immigration most closely matches mine. Probably why he won the nomination.

An anti-GOP rant from Malkin. what a surprise.

Once-Ler, I'm mollified. McCain's approach to illegal immigration most closely matches mine.

Would you please be more specific? Where do you and McCain match and differ?

Probably why he won the nomination.

If you recall, he came up from the rear in New Hampshire, a state which is hardly a bastion of conservatism. It was democrats and independents "crossing over" to vote for the candidate they believed would be easiest to beat that catapulted McCain back into the horse race.

An anti-GOP rant from Malkin. what a surprise.

Freedom of speech does not apply only to those who toe the party line--whether they be Republican, Democrat, or another party. That you choose not to counter Malkin's article with anything greater than a smear does not lend credence to your position. You are, of course, free to disagree with Michelle Malkin, but I suspect you will find few, if any, who will toe the GOP line simply because the "anti-GOP" label is used against them.

I would call them both foolish men. Their gesture does not indicate a lack of intelligence; it indicates arrogance.

Hernandez and McCain's apparent belief that the party faithful will vote for whomever Massa GOP decrees as worthy of their vote gives them the gumption to pull stunts like this.

When McCain loses votes for this and other shenanigans, he will stop. But He must lose votes on a large scale to get the message.

McCain is banking on Fear of Obama. McCain thinks he can piss in the faces of Americans and still get their votes. He's a gambler.

If he picks Gooberman, Lieberman, or Cristfag, there is no way in hell he can win, and he knows it.

This Hernandez guy is the most disgusting Snot I have ever seen on Fox TV.
He is a racist schmoozer who thinks he is a real comedian.
His type will destroy America.

I think it’s best to read the entire internet before making any comments.
