[KR: Most polls put Latinos' support for Obama at around 65%, so perhaps ads like these are part of an attempt to hold those gains. Rarely do Spanish-language ads get attention by mainstream media, but since Rush Limbaugh and Matt Drudge were involved, it spawned a surprising number of mainstream news stories. Here is a video and reporting from the Washington Post.]

Obama Invokes Rush Limbaugh in New Spanish-Language Ads
By Ed O’Keefe, Washington Post
The Obama campaign has released new radio and TV ads in Spanish that seek to tie Sen. John McCain to anti-immigrant comments made by radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh. The ads also suggest the Republican has “dos caras” — “two faces” — when it comes to his relations with Latino voters. The new messages, airing in Colorado, Nevada and New Mexico, come in response to recent Spanish-language ads by the McCain campaign that suggest Obama is responsible for the collapse of last year’s bipartisan immigration reform efforts.
