Republicans Lose More Latino Votes: Mitt Romney Criticizes Sotomayor While Seeking Votes In Puerto Rico

HP Reports: On Friday, Mitt Romney asked the Puerto Rican people for their vote on Sunday's GOP primary in an open letter to the commonwealth. But on Thursday, the candidate attacked a figure many from region see as a hero -- Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor.

Justice Sotomayor is the first Hispanic judge on the U.S. Supreme Court, and the third female judge. Born in the Bronx, Sotomayor is of Puerto Rican descent.

While the former Massachusetts governor released a radio ad last month attacking Santorum for voting to confirm Sonia Sotomayor in 1998, Romney said for the first time yesterday that he himself would not have voted to confirm the judge.

He then went on to criticize the Supreme Court Justice for being a "liberal jurist."

"Judge Sotomayor and I have very different judicial philosophies," he said in the interview. "She is an activist, a liberal jurist. And I prefer people who follow the Constitution and do not make law as a judge. And so I will support Justices who are conservative and who follow the constitution."

    The mind of a Brutal Racist and anti Ethnics barbarian - Exactly the opposite of what his father George Romney was. - George despised Barry Goldwater for paling with Racists


    Mitt Romney is his worst enemy in the electoral campaign - The Obama Campaign should uncork champagne to celebrate Romney's stupidity and lack of tact and soberness :



    " "Tact" is "Acute sensitivity to what is proper and appropriate in dealing with others, including the ability to speak or act without offending." ( From the "Free Dictionary" )

    "Soberness" is:

    "4. Devoid of frivolity, excess, exaggeration, or speculative imagination; straightforward: gave a sober assessment of the situation.

    5. Marked by seriousness, gravity, or solemnity of conduct or character. See Synonyms at serious.

    6. Marked by circumspection and self-restraint."

    This was also taken from the "Free Dictionary"( my favorite ! )

    Definitely : This Mitt Romney is his own worst enemy.... I have no doubts about an Obama Triumph by a Big Landslide in November 6, 2012. Presidential Elections.

    HOw can the Republicans lose something they never had. Hispanics are very liberal and demand higher taxes, bigger government, and more entitlements (for themselves).

    The only question for Hispanics is what happens to their current political power when the U.S. becomes a one party state and elite progressives no longer have a reason to pander to Hispanics?
