Loretta is one “hot” latina partygirl. I’d love to party with her…

Re: “If she wasn’t, then why is she being considered to head the EPA.”

That’s great! I hope she gets it. She was my Congresswoman until the last redistricting.

Quality individuals, people with a sense of right and wrong and a commitment to the constituents they represent. Quantity only gets us the type of politicians that routinely surface in the Third World. We’ve had plenty of those types get elected over the last twenty-eight years. And Loretta Sanchez, Joe Baca, Grace Napolitano, Xavier Becerra, and Linda Sanchez all fit into that category that emulates the persona and mentality of Alberto Gonzales.

Hilda Solis is a role model, whether she wants to accept that or not. Since so many of her Latino colleagues are only in Congress to enrich themselves, it is imperative that she step up into the light and assume that role.

Anna – you said Solis wasn’t high profile. If she wasn’t, then why is she being considered to head the EPA.

She may not be high profile in your book, but she is high enough for our president-elect.

Michael – re: getting any Latino/a into position of power at any cost. All I have to say is “Alberto Gonzales.” I guess some people never learn.

Anna – I never “accused her of improperly taking money.” All I am saying, companies have poured money into lobbying and campaign contributions to federal candidates, parties and committees as a general tactic, but they’ve also directed those contributions strategically. As they say “He who pays the piper calls the tune” and Loretta is no different.

One more thing, as I Texan I think I know a thing or two about not have Latinos serve as Gov or Senator. I will not stand in your way, stop it, if the people of CA choose her run for either Gov or Senator.

I may not like her ethics, just like I didn’t like Rick Noriega’s, but that didn’t stop from voting for him. However, the people have the right to know who they are electing into office, flaws and all.
