She hates the entire Latin left with a passion that is hard to fathom for those not associated with Miami anti-Cuba politics. Anyone who dares have relations with Cuba is an eenemy to her - and will be treated as such by the House of Representatives. Obama is going to have to defer in many instances, rather than pick a fight and end up seen as defending Latin socialists on Fox news. <br /><br />There were moves in the works on Cuba (not fast enough obviously) that will completely go in reverse. Cuba will realize there is little to nothing to gain from liberalization and the relationship will likely become ice cold again.leftsidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00676827005815770066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21674624.post-35813041457042843052010-11-03T20:29:51.511-04:002010-11-03T20:29:51.511-04:00"Success hinges largely on Republican percept..."Success hinges largely on Republican perceptions of the long-term impact of anti-immigrant rhetoric on current and future Latino voters."<br /><br />True indeed. For what it is worth, I am doing my part in conservative circles. <br /><br />http://thecrossculturalist.blogspot.com/2010/11/gop-failed-to-gain-majority-because-of.html<br /><br />Not all of us conservatives are anti-immigrant. But it is going to be an uphill battle to get something done of the immigration front.Pablohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06622986304847436893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21674624.post-68545593323204599552010-11-03T12:09:05.825-04:002010-11-03T12:09:05.825-04:00Mr Weeks
