Wolf or lamb?

With the presidential elections around the corner, the more than 12 million registered Hispanic voters look like a delicacy.

That is exactly why Barack Obama hung up his wolf suit and put on the costume of a placid little lamb. But we cannot let ourselves be fooled again. He did it in 2008, when he told journalist Jorge Ramos that in his first year in the Oval Office he would implement a reform to fix our broken immigration system. The wolf had a majority in Congress, the popular support, and the votes; it did not matter to him.

Now, as November nears, he needs the Hispanic votes and thus his obscene courtship. He knows he must charm not only those who have registered, but also the more than 21 million Hispanics who have the right to vote but have not registered. That is too many votes to justify remaining dressed up as a wolf.

As for Mitt Romney, I will say nothing, considering that he has always worn his stinky wolf suit with a thousand heads.

Obama’s nervous desire could cost him dearly, given that in his desperation to again win the hearts of the 67 percent of Hispanics who supported him in 2008, he will end up eating a tamale with corn husk and all, as did insipid President Gerald Ford in 1976 in Texas .

The good news is that the wolf sometimes loses. You don’t believe me? Ask Little Red Riding Hood.
