Another Dem misstep.

Nothing like alienating a constituency you're hoping will improve your demographics...

WASHINGTON (AP) -- A Democratic political ad is under fire from Hispanics who say it unfairly compares Latino immigrants to terrorists.

The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee sponsored a 35-second ad on its Web site that shows footage of two people scaling a border fence mixed with images of Osama Bin Laden and North Korea President Kim Jong Il.

But then again, maybe they're thinking that Latinos aren't all that computer savvy...

Heh heh!
They pulled it quickly!
Apparently, they don't believe that strongly that terrorists really can cross the border.
Not that th Dems would ever strengthen the border security.
I hope the Republican Senators get around to it someday soon, bu I'm not holding my breath.

Yeah, we've let things get pretty shoddy down there. Time will tell on whether it was a mistake or not.
