New Congress emboldens Cuban Democrats

Be sure to read this article from the Miami Herald that takes a look at how Democratic Cuban-Americans, like me, are engaging our community. I'm quoted, saying:

Joe Garcia, vice president of the New Democrat Network, said the Bush administration hobbled the Republican Party by ``selling itself out to the ultra-right.''

''What I think you are going to find from Democrats is they are going to look to engage the Cuban-American community for the solution,'' Garcia said.

NDN conducted the poll discussed in the article. To view it, visit our website. Also, if you're in DC next week, be sure to come to our forum, After Fidel: A New Day for America's relations with Cuba and Latin America? And if you have a chance, log on to Jim Defede's website later today to hear an interview I did this morning.
