I mean that he shouldn't waste his time PERIOD trying to pander to the Hispanic vote in Florida. He'll get the Cubans for the most part, but his son won't help him with the other groups. It just looks as if he's making a fool of himself.
I don't know why folks think that speaking Spanish is going to impress anyone. They speak with forked tongues. On one hand, they yammer on about how Hispanics need to learn English and assimilate, but in the next breath they're pandering with Spanish speaking babble and printing "Viva Bush" stickers. They can't make up their minds.

I think this really backfired on Newt, but I'm not really sure this will not work for Romney. I guess he's trying to cover all of his bases. Newt got skewered by the Univision reporter when he did the interview
His son speaks very well and as a hispanic myself you can tell he is quite fluent in the language which I admire. That being said this is nothing more than pandering since Obama has very high approval ratings amongst hispanics.

The primary in Florida isn't about beating Obama, it's about beating Newt.

I'm quite aware of that fact. Romney will take Florida and his son speaking Spanish isn't going to sway hispanic voters in this state which was my point.
