(24,853 posts)She's definitely not above playing on the fear of the moment in order to get votes. I'd even go so far as to say she probably fancies herself to be the best possibility to be elected first Latina President.

(8,419 posts)As ugly as it is she probably feels this is her best best chance to take the next step. She is betting on a major terrorist event. I have watched her for years from the district next door, she has always been very underwhelming, now she has become downright annoying.

(15,037 posts)Near Disneyland, the enclave is home to more than 24,000 people of Middle Eastern descent -- there are halal butchers, Arab, Armenian, Lebanese and Syrian restaurants and bakeries, numerous hookah cafes, and quite a number of mosques spread throughout that neighborhood and within the area I know is Ms Sanchez district.
Well, you can buy an education, but smarts are free if you work hard enough for them.
If she had a source for her assertions, it might be better. But this not only embarrasses her it places her constituents and neighbors in an increasingly imperiled situation.

We haven't had a Senator from Southern Cal for years, would like to see it happen, but it ain't going to be Ms. Sanchez.

In terms of political strategy, it seems like she ought to know better.
Very poor judgment any way it's sliced.

(45,319 posts)of place. CA as a whole voted Obama 61% McCain 36.95% so her district is more like CA than it is like OC.....voting wise.
This means she has no actual excuse for her brand of nastiness. None.

(20,629 posts)"The Vietnamese and the Republicans are, with an intensity, trying to take this seat from which we have done so much for our community -- to take this seat and give it to this Van Tran, who is very anti-immigrant and very anti-Hispanic," Sanchez said during a recent Spanish-language interview with Univision, according to the Orange County Register.
Tran, a Republican state assemblyman and Sanchez's challenger for the seat, is a Vietnamese-American whose family immigrated to the United States in 1975 amid political turmoil in Vietnam, according to his website.
