Candidates court Hispanics


The U.S. presidential candidates will surely be stumping for Hispanic votes today as the focus turns to Nevada, New Mexico and Colorado.

Democratic candidate Barack Obama stumped in Nevada Wednesday, checking out a minor league baseball stadium and talking to union workers. He also scheduled appearances on Spanish-language television networks.

Obama will have to fight Republican candidate John McCain, who is from nearby Arizona, for votes. That battle seems to have started with an ad in Spanish released by the Obama campaign that portrays McCain as anti-immigrant.
