The Hillary Clinton campaign website and Barack Obama campaign websites both have Spanish language versions available from their main page (not so for John McCain). One U.S. Senate race in Texas however, is getting heat for offering information in Spanish. Texas Democrat Rick Noriega’s site is being called offensive for having an en Español button. One blogger asks:
Is it just me, or is the “en español” button on Noriega’s site highly offensive?
