Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is moving to shore up an area of vulnerability in his re-election campaign against his trailing Democratic opponent, Phil Angelides. On Tuesday at an event in L.A., he will announce the formation of Hispanic Families for Arnold. When he was elected in the 2003 recall election, Schwarzenegger garnered 34 percent of the Latino vote, a good total given that the replacement Democratic nominee, Lieutenant Governor Cruz Bustamante, is Mexican-American. But in some recent polls matched up against Angelides, Schwarzenegger is running under 20 percent.
Forty to fifty community leaders and their families will join Schwarzenegger at the Tuesday event. They include former U.S. Small Business Administration head Hector Barreto, state Assemblywoman Bonnie Garcia, Santa Ana City Councilman Carlos Bustamante, Simi Valley Mayor Pro Tem Glen Becerra, and Henry Mendoza, head of the California Hispanic Chambers of Commerce.

On Tuesday at an event in L.A., he will announce the formation of Hispanic Families for Arnold.
Could he be annoucing this program at the La Raza convention the same time Karl Rove is there?

I guess Arnold figures what ever he has to do to get elected.

According to the article, he spoke Saturday or Sunday to the La Raza group:
This past weekend, Schwarzenegger addressed the National Council of La Raza convention in L.A., after walking around the event with his friend, Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa.
More advisors from the left:
The governor, who had no Latino outreach program to speak of before, has been helped in this by a new senior advisor. Former Univision broadcaster and League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) director Arnoldo Torres, a one-time advisor to Jesse Jackson, came on board this year to counsel him and run Latino outreach.

When are they gonna announce a "Caucasian Outreach Program"? It seems like California definitely needs one, every group but us is represented here.

A La Raza convention would be as bad as a KKK, Black Panther or Skin Head convention.
It's all hatred and racism.

There are some very interesting comments at the linked article (from Bradley's regular dem readers).
This one caught my eye:
...all things considered, Arnold is doing just fine now and the shortest route to get Mayor AV as our next GUV is Arnold.

How about a conservative outreach program? Or a Republican outreach program?

Anybody who can't see the handwriting on the wall, that Arnold is executing this globalist setup, is brain dead. I've seen a few. Specifically, those saying that Arnold's election will pave the path for McClinock 2010.
IMO, that's not likely, or at least not in the intended sense. It may just cause a Republican revolution though, of the conservative variety.

It was not announced or covered at all in the California media outlets. Very sneaky

And for those who don't already know this,
when J.D. Hayworth went to the WH to discuss the immigration(illegals) problem with the POTUS, Hayworth was told by Karl Rove "You just have a problem with brown people."
I guess that means that all of us who want the borders & ports secured and immigration laws enforced are just "racist bigots!"
2008 just can't come soon enough...
where is IKE when we reeeeely need him! LOL
