A blogger who amplified racist remarks about former President Obama was paid by the Vicente Gonzalez campaign ahead of the November election in the state.
You know a Democrat candidate is in trouble when partisan Dem Jonathan Capehart spends more time raising questions about his record than trying to build him up.
Vicente Gonzalez was a guest on Capehart's MSNBC Sunday Show, and the host twice hit him with tough questions about his record.
Capehart first raised the fact that a blogger paid by Gonzalez attacked Gonzalez's opponent, the sitting Republican congresswoman in the district, Mexican-born Mayra Flores, as "Miss Frijoles," and a "cotton pickin' liar."
