"We have to band together and that means Latinos in Florida, Cuban-Americans, Mexican-Americans, Puerto Ricans, South Americans - we have to network better - we have to be more politically minded - we have to put aside party and think of ourselves as Latinos, as Hispanics, more than we have in the past."The audio is from this page, and I have absolutely no doubt that that is indeed him speaking.

* First, I dont believe its him, I agree it doesnt even sound like him.
* I am anti-illegal immigration and everything, but c'mon, that was the worst Bill Richardson impression I've ever heard. If you're going to undermine a good man's political campaign like a Bushie, at least try to do it well.
