He did pretty well in the debate. I thought CNN was deliberately teeing up some of those early questions for his benefit since some of them were in areas where I’d heard him speak knowledgeably before like Central America. I would think pounding Caribbean dictators would appeal to Cubans. He’s going to get a thumping on FR today, because I’m sure he pulled some votes from Newt last night. He nailed Romney on Romney care. Even the Newt supporters had to like that. Still, they’ll be out here calling him everything in the book.
I believe Santorum will do well next Tuesday. He was smart to make his pitch not just to the Cubans but to the thousands of Floridians with heritage from Puerto Rico, Central America, and South America.
My Hispanic friends hate to be “bundled” as if they were all Mexicans.
Whoever is running Rick’s campaign deserves the highest kudos for last night.
