Adventures of the Coconut Caucus

We of course lament the exit of our very last Mexican-American candidate for president, Mitt Romney. It is not everyday that you see a “Hispanic” with 40 million dollars to spend on his own ego, but hey, it was fun while it lasted.

And he dropped out not just because he wasn´t going to win, but because he wants to make sure we don´t get a woman or a Black guy in the White House, because then the terrorists will:

“If I fight on in my campaign, all the way to the convention, I would forestall the launch of a national campaign and
make it more likely that Senator Clinton or Obama would win. And in this time of war, I simply cannot let my campaign, be a part of aiding a surrender to terror,” Romney told the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington

So we are one step closer to getting a Central American president of the United States!!!!!

Maybe John McCain will take the Canal Zone back and turn it into a presidential biblioteca….

This Just In!!!!

Here you go, in honor of La Bloguera, in bullet form:

• OMG Bill Richardson came on to talk to the fake Peter Jennings on NBC about the nomination which he did not get.
• Here is the breakdown:
• Clinton: Oklahoma, Nueva Yol, Jersey, Massachusetts, Tennessee, Arkansas, and other boring white states except for Nevada.
• Obama: Georgia, Illinois, Alabama, Delaware and Connecticut. Now Utah, Kansas, North Dakota. Idaho, maybe.
• Romney: Massachussets. Duh. Plus a couple of other states. Oh, and yaaaaawn.
• McCain: ALL THE REST. NY, CT, NJ, OK…
• Huckabee: he’s nowhere near Latino as far as we know, so we don’t really care.
• Now we have Mel Martinez, our favorite Pedro Pan, because when you can’t find a white man, send in the Latinos. And guess what? Cubans DO love Central Americans! He hearts John McCain like, a lot.



• Mwahaha, says the Panamanian. Oh, and a random white lady called him Johnny.
• AND insider sources say that voting in NY is like playing the slot machines at Vegas. Except more bootleg and minus the showgirls unless Jamaican and Polish ladies that explain to young voters what they’re doing count as showgirls.
• Oh and the NYT has all these cool maps and graphics.
• Hillary took California AND Arizona. Now what did we tell you about Latinos and their feelings toward blonds??
• Everything’s too close to call! What is this, Mexico?
• CONCLUSION: The primaries, like telenovelas or revolutions, are eternal. Stay tuned, folks!

Well it’s Super Tuesday! As we follow the happenings between our honorary members, we’ll leave you with this:

Obama, Romney lead in California

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama surged to a big lead over Hillary Clinton in California hours before “Super Tuesday” voting began in 24 states, according to a Reuters/C-SPAN/Zogby poll released on Tuesday.

In the Republican race, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney held a 7-point advantage on Arizona Sen. John McCain in California, while McCain added to commanding double-digit leads in New York and New Jersey.

We’ll overlook the fact that those stickers look like they are promoting Maoist China and leave you with more to come…

Yes, a super long title as you may have noticed but the results are in: Cubans in Florida are waaay in favor of Panamian John McCain over Mexican-American Mitt Romney, and they picked Rudy Giuliani as second place, which means that resurrecting Ronald Reagan in Spanish actually does pay off.

Hispanic GOP voters were going 50 percent for McCain, 26 percent for Giuliani — who received the all-important endorsement from Cuban-born Sen. Mel Martinez — and 16 percent for Romney. Huckabee got 5 percent of the votes from this group, according to the polling.

AND guess what? he ran no ads in SPANISH Read the rest of this entry »
