Ah, yes. That trusty “D” can work wonders. But is it enough to help Florida Democratic congressional candidate — and failed gubernatorial hopeful — Alex Sink weather this little storm?
Speaking earlier today at a debate on immigration reform, Sink, well, sunk:

Let’s go to the facepalm-inducing videotape:

Maybe President Obama can lend her his teleprompter. Clearly, like him, Sink sucks at off-the-cuff speaking.
Nice to see that Alex Sink thinks of immigrant workers so highly. @AlexSinkFlorida #CD13 http://t.co/3NOv2kPHeM

@MichelleFields @FreeBeacon I wonder if Alex Sink is able to go into a 7-11 or Dunkin' Doughnuts without a slight Indian accent

Alex Sink are you saying that immigrants can only work as a hotel employee or mow the grass? Talk about sucker punching a class of people..

Maybe she’s a Tea Party plant!
Meanwhile, we’re still waiting for the MSM to fire up the outrage machine.

Those crickets are getting loud.
[Update]
Miami Herald political writer Marc Caputo alerted us to his reply to the question about press coverage.
@TravisBlanton that's an @adamsmithtimes Q. In 9% Hispanic CD13, not sure how much it matters. Thought 'twas stupid

Caputo also retweeted this:
This is so inappropriate. Alex Sink should apologize for these comments. http://t.co/OgjviUjsFK #sayfie
