Chimichanga Ignites Twitter War
Top campaign officials debate political correctness. Can they really keep this up all year?
Line of the day from WAPO's Dana Milbank: "The chimichanga? It may be the only thing Republicans have left to offer Latinos."

RT @SARosado: Hey @Messina2012, not to try and insult your intelligence or anything, but not all Hispanics are about chimichangas.

Tweeting someone else’s words caused a stir, but the GOP is on the wrong side of every Hispanic voter priority:bit.ly/A6BTk4

@messina2012 first distinguished himself by swearing on a campaign video. Now he tweets offensive comments about Hispanics.

.@ericfehrn so rounding up undocumented workers and deporting them or calling the Dream Act a handout ISN'T offensive?

@EricFehrn @messina2012 if you guys put the outrage machine's settings this sensitive now, it could be a long cycle

Skiddly Doobop a year agoThe chimichanga is American made (at least that’s what most of it’s origin stories suggest); true it uses traditional Mexican ingredients, but it passes the deep-fried citizenship test for American food. The fact that it’s an ethnically Mexican dish born in America now stirring up debate on both sides of the aisle is something you may interpret as you wish. As long as it’s on the menu I’m happy.
