I’ll admit that I haven’t been paying close enough attention to how the Spanish language media has been reporting on the Sonia Sotomayor nomination.

Americans United for Change have put out a Spanish language ad urging people to call their senators to support Sotomayor.

Read the script in Spanish and English after the jump.
