GOP presidentical candidates agree to Univision debate.

Fred Thompson, Rudy Giuliani, and Mitt Romney yesterday agreed to participate in the Univision debate on Dec. 9, joining John McCain, Ron Paul, and Duncan Hunter. In September, Univision had to cancel its GOP debate because only McCain agreed to participate.

    TP admins, is ‘presidentical’ an error, or a deliberate Bushism? ^_^

    GOP candidates should go on Univision if they want to get elected. Fact of the matter is that many stupid “legal” Hispanics don’t speak or understand English. If the GOPers want to influence that population, they will have to pander. Tough luck.

    Oh we all know why they finally agreed, because it hit the news that they were shunning debates put on by BROWN people and alot of people noticed the bigotry, so now they are going to kiss and make up with them….I don’t think so bub, too little too late.

    Fact? Fact? You’ve hit a new low in stupid, racist comments.

    If you ever left your mom’s basement and actually met any “Hispanics” you might actually learn something . . . but that’s a really unlikely scenario.

    presidentical = Bushism

    I wonder if anyone’s told them the non-white people are going to be the U.S. majority pretty soon. Can you imagine the panic at the RNC?

    Alert to all GOP Noise Machine members – Destroy all copies of previous memo that said “Democrats debated on Spanish-language Univision only to pander to Hispanics, including ilegals”. New message – “Republicans are a big tent party and pro-family Hispanics should vote Republican.”

    Someone must’ve realized that they can’t steal Florida without the Cuban vote.

    Reported abuse on hits’ post.

    He is just here to inflame. Nothing to see, though.


  12. Jay Randal says:

    McCain did not even bother to show-up last night to vote YES or NO on Mukasey, the new torture loving Attorney General, so John can resign from the Senate and retire to Arizona where he belongs in a rest home.


  13. Jason M. Hendler says:

    I think the candidates are feeling good about their performances against shells fired by Chris Wallace, which is well deserved, but Chris was pitching hard fastballs down the center, whereas a liberal forum will throw nothing hit-able, while calling strikes. The reps will all regret this, especially now that the left is nervous that not even Hill’reh can win.
