Obama’s task: Prying Latino loyalties from Clintons
Tagged: Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton
Sen. Barack Obama says he has built a diverse coalition to win the presidency, blind to differences of race, gender or age.
But in California, where Latinos voted Democratic by a 2-to-1 margin in 2004 and are expected to make up a quarter of Tuesday’s Democratic electorate, Obama’s inability to connect with the Latino community here cannot be ignored.
In statewide polls dating back to April, Latino voters have overwhelmingly favored Obama’s main rival, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton by 3-to-1. It is a major reason Clinton has maintained a double-digit lead over Obama in California.”*
