Just about the worst idea ever. Even if you don't agree with what the politicians in Washington are doing, you should still vote so you have a say in the local and state elections.

That's our cynical politics in a nutshell.

Looks like smart politics if you ask me

The GOP needs to work on one for blacks now.

The fact that 90% of blacks vote for one party means that party pretty much takes them for granted. What have Democrats done about inner city violence or jobs or education??

Let me guess, "Latinos for Reform" is funded by the Tea Party Express?

Seems like a smart move to me. If you know 90% of a certain group votes for the other party, wouldn't it be smart to convince them not to vote?

Seems to be more the GOP, not the Tea Party per se.

GOP is seeing light at the end of the tunnel, and it's the oncoming train of changing demographics.

An ad of Mexicans telling Mexicans not to vote, and it turns into a racist redneck tea bagger ad?

I can't believe that video is for real!

The Latino's for Reform has figured out that asking Hispanic Americans to vote republican is much less rewarding than asking them not to vote at all, ergo....

Oh, and this isn't the first time this "Latinos for Reform" group popped up. They were around in 2008 airing ads against Obama claiming that Obama would put African-Americans before Latinos and Africa before Latin-America.

It's the swiftboat guys at it again.

ya, but if they found out, it could blow up in their face and have the opposite reaction. it's a high risk gamble on their part. Not really all that smart if you ask me.

As the RedUnderURBed said, this has already been exposed as yet another Swift Boat dirty trick-same people, same money, etc.
