Also noting that Obama does better when there is a Spanish language option...

It's not an issue of what 'should' be, there are enough people who aren't confident in their English who vote... and are entitled to vote. If polling isn't taking that into consideration - then they're doing themselves a disservice at the very least.

If there's some evidence to suggest that under polling of Latinos, which there is in NV, CO, AZ then it should at least be looked at.

Um... Apparently Wink is the international symbol for, I'm going to say something prattish, but then pretend it's good natured.

But what he was saying wasn't hackery - he was stating an anecdote which reflects a point, then you went all hyper-partisan. Just because someone is politically involved doesn't mean they're instantly incapable of impartiality. I don't think I could look at myself if I was like that... It sounds horrible.
