@mikemadrid Just listened to the show.

Sounds to me like Chuck’s Senate super PAC is currently our only hope for hitting the brakes on the rightward shift among Latino voters. Would you agree, or are there other groups we should be supporting?

@jimnorth55 The Democratic Party is being held in a head lock by people denying what’s happening. It’s a time worn story of power, status and money.
Highly unlikely they adjust in time. As I mentioned on the show the same people denied it was happening in 2014,2016,2020 and 2022.

@mikemadrid With respect, Mike, you restated the problem, but did not answer the question. I would like to hear what you think, but should I redirect my question to Chuck?

@jimnorth55 I think I answered it

@mikemadrid Not trying to be contentious, just want to make sure I understand. So, as you see it, even efforts like Chuck’s Senate support PAC offer no hope of opposing the rightward Latino shift?

@mikemadrid What about Aversion Therapy. Can we strap them in chairs, in a scene reminiscent of A Clockwork Orange, and force them to watch Mike Madrid lecture on Latino politics?
