Gutierrez: Hispanics saved Reid

Longtime immigration advocate Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill.) credited Hispanics Wednesday for keeping Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) in the Senate.

"Latino citizens responded to Majority Leader Harry Reid's aggressive pursuit of immigration reform by voting for him in overwhelming numbers," he said in a statement. "They were clearly the difference in his victory."

Latinos made up 12 percent of Nevada voters, with 90 percent of them supporting Reid. Angle got only an 8 percent sliver of their support, according to a Latino Decisions poll.

Gutierrez said Reid deserved Hispanic support for his efforts to pass immigration reform in a hostile environment.

"He embraced immigration reform as his issue and many called him crazy because of it. When we went to him and said it was time to call for a vote on the DREAM Act, he immediately put it on the schedule. He stood by us. He fought for Latinos and immigrant voters and for sensible immigration reform that establishes the rule of law. Facing some of the most vicious political attacks I can remember, he responded with conviction and courage," Gutierrez said.

At the same time, he sent a warning to both parties about the Hispanic vote in 2012, and asked President Barack Obama to bypass Congress in implementing immigration reform if a Republican House doesn't let it happen.

"Neither political party can expect to win the White House without a significant percentage of the Latino vote," he said. "And they both know it."

Gutierrez is a walking talking propaganda machine. I take no value in anything he says. He keeps talking to convince himself.

Dixie

Americans have spoken. We do not support amnesty for illegal aliens, Gutierrez. Do you get it Gutierrez?

Hispanic's and harrahs empolyees fought hard for this man. He is and will be a shinning example of what lations expect from the american goverment. They should all do nothing but pander to our ever increasing needs and not worry about anybody else in the state. Navada was built by the latino comunity! Haha just have to laugh at this guy SORRY

He probably claims that Hipanics created the Heaven and Earth as well and that we all owe them a debt of gratitude for doing so and allowing the rest of us to occupy their royal space.

So now this ALIEN traitor wants us to just "bypass congress" If the Illegals and there pals cannot get their way He should be removed from office Immediately for failing In his duty as a congressional representative of ALL AMERICAN CITIZENS. He Is In violation of his oath of office....

Those rigged voting machines maintained by SEIU goons worked well for Dingy Harry.

The more I read the more convinced I am that illegal aliens saved Harry Reid's campaign... mostly in the Las Vegas area.

I guess he also thinks that last night was a {LATINO LANDSLIDE} that helped cause the biggest change of power In 70 years. Latinos don't mean squat In 2012. The voters that will cause more pain for people like this low life scum-bag will be WHITE INDEPENDENT VOTERS,just like the ones that spoke out last night

Illegal aliens plus non citizen legal immigrants, most of them do what the union tells them to do.
