The most likely outcome of that effort according to Linda Chavez is no Hispanic Republicans. She makes her case in a WSJ column.  You may need a subscription, but I was able to access the whole thing here.  Atlantic Wire has a brief summary  here.  And Chavez explains in this JWR column.

100520bokloresObama pronounced us not defined by our borders and promptly joined Mexican President Felipe Calderon in trashing Arizona for its immigration law.  Senator Arlen Specter, now spurned by both democrats and republicans, doesn’t find himself bound by much of anything.  At the end of Clinton’s impeachment trial in 1999, Specter relied on Scottish Law to vote “not proved”

100405bokloresSome republicans are unhappy with the soaring spending of RNC chairman Michael Steele.  One notable expense was $2000 at a “bondage themed nightclub”,  Voyeur West Hollywood. The outing was an attempt to wrap up 30-something republican donors known as Young Eagles.   A private jet the high flying chairman had been angling for was rejected.

During the health care summit Obama twice pointed out, with a smile on his face, that he was the president.  This seemed redundant since everyone in the room was already calling him “Mr. President”.  He returned the favor by addressing them by their first names as if they were kids in his class - which they sort of were.  Peggy Noonan and  Dennis Prager picked up on this.

Helpful note to the president: don’t call Senator Boxer “Babs”.
