I am going to go out on a limb — and figure that former Governor Pete Wilson does not poll well among Spanish-speaking Californians. I could be wrong, but I think that a new Spanish-language radio ad released this morning by the Poizner for Governor campaign bears out my theory.
The ad actually replays the message from Governor Wilson in a recent Whitman ad…
What I found to be most interesting is the candor of Poizner, telling listeners that he supports the Arizona law…
Here is the translation — and if you want to hear the ad "en espanol" — it is below…
Translation for “Hablando Claro/Tell It Straight”:
Narrator:
Don’t you hate it when politicians say one thing to one group and something else to another? That’s what Meg Whitman is doing. Here is the radio spot that she does not want us to hear.
Pete Wilson:
This is former Governor Pete Wilson. I know how important it is to stop illegal immigration and I know Meg Whitman. Meg will be tough as nails on illegal immigration. She’ll fight to secure our border and go after sanctuary cities.
Narrator:
Meg Whitman thinks that she can fool us. We deserve more respect.
Steve Poizner tells it straight. We may not always agree with him, but he isn’t playing games.
He’s a strong believer in legal immigration and an opponent of illegal immigration. He supports the Arizona Law.
For Steve Poizner, public service isn’t about doing what’s popular, it’s about doing what he believes is right. Isn’t time for a politician we can trust?
Steve Poizner:
Paid for by Steve Poizner for Governor 2010.
