Fact Check

It would hardly surprise most Americans to assume that fact stretching and truth bending occur in the political arena to court voters. In an unfortunate event for the McCain campaign, a Florida based commercial targeting Spanish speaking voters reaches new heights in fact distortion. Only one of the half-dozen figures given regarding Florida and Latin America's relationship is correct. All others are totally false or egregiously exaggerated. The official video has been removed from the McCain website and Youtube or I would have posted a link to those locations. Just goes to show that you can't believe everything you see on TV.
