When Miami Republican Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen invited him to visit Miami, Tancredo’s spokesman responded:
[I]f Ros-Lehtinen’s invitation includes ”a stay at a five-star beachfront resort, he may be willing to look beyond the inherent dangers that he had cited and visit Miami again[.]"

Me: [silence]
That reminds me of a political button I saw back in the 1980s while visiting Canada: “Canada, 51st state; Mulrooney for Governor”
“More Evidence That The Air Is Thin In Denver”
What are you implying about me, Andrew, and Thullen, Von?
(And surely we make it clear that everyone around here thinks alike.)
