Via kos, What the Florida GOP thinks of Latinos:

Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum on Wednesday proposed tougher curbs against illegal migrants in his melting-pot state which he said would go "one step further" than a similar contested Arizona law.

[. . .] "Florida will not be a sanctuary state for illegal aliens," added McCollum, accompanied by Representative Will Snyder. The legislation will require Florida law enforcement officials to check a suspected illegal immigrant's status in the course of a stop, or a violation of another law. [. . .] Florida, especially its southern portion, is a major U.S. migration destination for nationals from the Caribbean and Latin America, making it a cultural and racial melting-pot.

Feelin' the GOP love Latinos? What Latino in their right mind would ever be a Republican?
