There are dramatic signs that the fabled “sleeping giant” of the American electorate, the Latino vote, has awoken for the 2008 presidential race – putting Republican John McCain and Democrat Barack Obama in heated competition for what could be a game-changing prize.
And the candidates’ reaction to that awakening explains this week’s flurry of activity: Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., will address the nation’s largest association of Latino officials today in Washington, D.C., the day before her much-ballyhooed joint appearance with Obama in New Hampshire. Both the candidates plan to cross paths before the same group, the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials, this weekend.”*
