Obama Union Supporters Say Clinton Is "Shameless"

A Nevada union supporting Barack Obama is taking the gloves off in a new Spanish radio ad that blasts Hillary Clinton in advance of Saturday's democratic caucus. UNITE HERE, under the umbrella of the state's largest union, is running the ad in response to a lawsuit filed to disallow members from caucusing at their places of work – mainly casinos. The lawsuit was dismissed today but this ad is adding plenty of fire to the issue.

The following is a translation of the ad:

"Hillary Clinton does not respect our people. Hillary Clinton supporters went to court to prevent working people to vote this Saturday - that is an embarrassment."

"Hillary Clinton supporters want to prevent people from voting in their workplace on Saturday."

"This is unforgivable!"

"Hillary Clinton is shameless."

"Hillary Clinton should not allow her friends to attack our people's right to vote this Saturday. This is unforgivable, there is no respect."

"Senator Obama is defending our right to vote. Senator Obama wants our votes. He respects our votes, our community, and our people."

"Senator Obama's campaign slogan is "Sí Se Puede, Sí se puede." ("Yes We Can")."

"Vote for a president that respects us, and that respects our right to vote."

"Obama for president, "Si Se Puede" ("Yes We Can")."
