The Washington Post today continues its handy Democratic Press Release Service with Jim VandeHei repeating the talking points against Sen. Conrad Burns, who’s made several jokes about Latino workers having their papers. The headline, playing off their multitudinous Macaca riffs, is “Comments Haunt Another Senator.” (They don’t mean Hillary’s Gandhi-gas-station joke.)

Just so you know that this is a one-sided tactic, the Post didn’t notice in June that San Diego Democratic congressional hopeful Francine Busby told a largely Latino audience, “you don’t need papers for voting,” until after she lost, despite playing up her chances over the last weekend as a possible bellwether of big GOP losses.
