I think that they are both compelling for different reasons though.<BR/><BR/>I think that Latinos (at least older ones) simply don't know Obama that well. But he seems to be able to win people over very quickly, so I do think that he will get a significant share of the Latino vote.SheCodeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781431886213930930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6152307338772205194.post-81623698310564577122008-02-17T18:36:00.000-05:002008-02-17T18:36:00.000-05:00That is the unfortunate thing about Hillary Clinto...That is the unfortunate thing about Hillary Clinton is that she can never stand alone on her own merits. I think if she was able to do that, then the outcome might be different. She comes as a package--Team Clinton and personally, I don't want to deal with another Clinton in the White House because he would be front and center with a lot of things. Besides, I believe he was given way too much credit for the so-called prosperity we "enjoyed" during his administration. She doesn't have a whole lot of experience, which says that she is running on her husband's name, as an incumbent, if you will.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16751272793461639685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6152307338772205194.post-67940564818081008832008-02-17T18:03:00.000-05:002008-02-17T18:03:00.000-05:00Janet - Your comment confirms my reason for using ...<B>Janet</B> - Your comment confirms my reason for using the <I>Team Clinton</I> moniker so often.

This is what I have been told by a few of my Hispanic coworkers. Additionally, many find Obama suspect because he is "new" on the scene and they don't really know what he stands for. Go figure, but that's what I was told during a discussion at work last week.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16751272793461639685noreply@blogger.com
