“C’mon Latinos, I have a seat at a table just for you.”
If Mitt Romney’s campaign is “trying to reach out to Latino voters,” he might want to expand his understanding of what it means to be Latino in the U.S.
Hint for Mitt: it goes beyond farmed baseball imports and Rubio veep chatter.

I was wondering the other day if Rand Paul would have to go through TSA inspection if he had his father’s private plane. Guess I have my answer.
This made me laugh. Mitt just can’t get a visual break. No one trusts him and, in spite of Univision’s silly belief that Mitt might be the first Mexican-American president, it looks like Latinos don’t trust him either.
