||1: Republicans have long tried to find common cause with Latino voters. ||2: They point out that, in some respects, Hispanics seem natural conservatives: religious, hard-working and with close family ties. ||3: There is even talk that Mr Romney might bolster his standing among Latinos by picking one as a running-mate—Marco Rubio, a senator from Florida, say, or Susana Martinez, the governor of New Mexico.

||1:共和党一直都在尝试找到和拉丁美洲裔选民的共同目标。||2:他们指出,在某些方面,西班牙裔人看上去是天然的保守党:他们虔诚,勤奋,关心家庭。||3:甚至有这样一种说法,罗姆尼可能在拉丁美洲裔人里面挑选一位竞选拍档,想以此来在拉美裔选民中站稳脚跟,这位拍档可能是佛罗里达州的参议员马可·卢比奥,也可能是新墨西哥州州长苏珊娜·马丁内斯。

||1: Nonetheless Mr Romney cheerfully joined in the denunciation of Mr Perry for his breach of party doctrine. ||2: By the same token, when Newt Gingrich, another candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, suggested that illegal immigrants of good character and long standing should be allowed to stay, Mr Romney attacked him too. ||3: He argues that life should be made so difficult for illegal immigrants that they will choose, in a horrible phrase, to “self-deport”. ||4: Democrats hope that all this will dent Mr Romney’s prospects among Hispanic voters, many of whom see Republican fulminations against illegal immigration as stony-hearted, if not racist. ||5: In a survey conducted last year on behalf of the Pew Hispanic Centre, two-thirds of Hispanic registered voters said they favoured the Democrats. ||6: Just 20% identified themselves as Republican. In March a Fox News Latino poll found that, in a head-to-head match-up, Mr Romney would carry just 14% of the Hispanic vote. ||7: Earlier polls had found Mr Romney doing better than that, but still considerably worse than the 31% John McCain managed to amass, even while losing in 2008, or the whopping 40% George W. Bush posted in 2004.

||1:尽管罗姆尼兴高采烈得加入到指责佩里的队伍中去,称佩里违反了共和党的原则。||2:出于同样的原因,罗姆尼也抨击纽特·金里奇,金里奇也是共和党总统候选提名人之一,他曾建议当局应该允许那些遵纪守法居住已久的非法移民留在美国.。||3:罗姆尼宣称应该让那些非法移民的日子不好过,然后用一个可怕的短语来说,他们就会选择“自我驱逐出境”。||4:民主党希望这一切会抹去西班牙裔美国选民对罗姆尼的希望,这些人中大多数认为共和党对非法移民的态度可谓铁石心肠,就快赶上民族主义者了。||5:在一项由皮尤西裔研究中心主导的调查显示,已登记的西班牙裔美国选民中,有2/3的人更青睐民主党。||6:只有20%的人认为自己是共和党.三月份福克斯新闻频道对拉丁美洲裔美国人进行的民调显示,一对一竞选的情况下,罗姆尼只能拿到西班牙裔选民手中14%的选票。||7:先前的民调显示罗姆尼的表现会比这一数字好一些,但是仍然比起麦凯恩努力获得的31%支持率要差的多,尽管后者2008年失败了,更别提小布什2004年获得的40%的极高支持率了。

||1:Her Democratic predecessor, Bill Richardson, is of Mexican descent on his mother’s side.||2:And Brian Sandoval in Nevada is both Latino and Republican.||3:But Ms Martinez is the only governor who is simultaneously Hispanic, female and Republican.||4:As such, she seems well on the way to embodying the party’s hoped-for future as a conservative movement that can appeal to, rather than repel, Latinos, America’s fastest-growing main ethnic group.

||1:前任州长、民主党人比尔?理查森的母亲是墨西哥人。||2:内华达州州长布莱恩?桑多瓦尔既是拉丁裔又是共和党人。||3:但是马丁内斯是唯一一名共和党拉丁裔的女性州长。||4:由于她的特殊身份，马丁内斯似乎正在成为一种形象，代表着共和党所希望的未来：即把共和党转变为一个吸引，而不是压制美国增长最快的主要民族群体－拉美裔人的保守派运动。

His problem-solving style has caught the eye of Bill and Hillary Clinton. The couple invited the young Texan to dine at their home in Washington before his swearing-in as HUD secretary. That sparked headlines about a possible Clinton-Castro presidential ticket in 2016. Serving as a cabinet secretary will give Mr Castro national experience.|| And with 50m Hispanics in America, almost half of whom are eligible to vote, Latino stars are in demand (just ask such Republicans as Senator Marco Rubio of Florida).|| For all that, running a chunk of the Great Society carries risks, in an age when Washington is reviled and reformers call states and city halls the only places where interesting policies thrive. For almost 20 years Republican presidential candidates have growled about abolishing HUD. Conservatives call it an outdated backwater whose funds should be sent directly to the states, so that decisions are taken by politicians who live among regular folk, not Washington know-alls. Its budgets have been squeezed sincethe days of Ronald Reagan, who famously failed to recognise his own HUD secretary at a White House gathering, hailing him with a cheery-but-vague “Mr Mayor!”

1:他的问题解决风格吸引了比尔和希拉里克林顿夫妇的注意。||2:在卡斯特罗进行HUD部长入职宣誓之前，克林顿夫妇邀请了这名年轻的德克萨斯州议员拜访他们在华盛顿的家。||3:媒体争相报道，认为在2016年总统大选中，克林顿和卡斯特罗很可能结成联盟。||4:一名内阁部长的职位可以给予卡斯特罗国家经验。||5:美国有五千万拉美裔人，其中几乎有一半符合投票的条件，拉丁裔明星很有市场（这要去问问这类共党人，如佛罗里达州的参议员马克罗·鲁比奥）。||6:尽管如此，要运作伟大社会这样一个大块头也伴随着风险，在这个年代，人们都在骂政府，改革家们把州政厅和市政厅叫做有趣政策发展繁荣的仅有地方。||7:20年来，共和党总统候选人都叫嚣着要废除HUD。||8:保守派们把它叫做过时的死水，投进去的资金应该直接送还给各州，这样那些生活在民间的政治家们就可以做决定，而不是政府中那些自以为无所不知的人。||9:自罗纳德·里根总统上任之后它的预算就被压缩了，这名总统很有名的一件事就是在白宫聚会上没有认出自己的HUD部长，向他打招呼，很模糊地称呼他为“市长先生”。

||1:He credits affirmative action with helping him and his identical twin brother Joaquín (since 2013 a member of Congress for San Antonio) to travel together from a city high school to Stanford University, then Harvard Law School.||2:But ethnic labels do not easily capture him.||3:He grew up speaking English (he began discreet Spanish lessons as mayor).||4:Dapper and a bit prim, he could be a corporate lawyer.||5:He urges Democrats not to take a monolithic Hispanic vote for granted.||6:That is good advice and, from him, heartfelt.||7:Many saw him running for governor of Texas in 2018, by which time some glibly asserted that a soaring Latino population would turn the state Democratic.||8:Yet in November’s elections 44% of Texan Hispanic voters backed a Republican for governor: the state will be conservative for a while yet.

||1:他相信是平权法案帮助他和他的双胞胎兄弟华金（自2013年起就是圣安东尼奥市的一名国会议员）一起从城市高中读到斯坦福大学，然后是哈佛大学法学院。||2:但他没有轻易被种族标签捕获。||3:他说英语长大（他在成为市长后开始慎重地上西班牙语课程）。||4:他衣冠楚楚而且有点一本正经，看起来像一名公司律师。||5:他呼吁民主党人不要把拉美裔人的集体投票看成是理所当然。||6:这是他衷心提出的好建议。||7:很多人看到他在为2018年的德克萨斯州州长竞选做准备，那时有些油嘴滑舌的人声称不断增加的拉美裔人会将该州变成民主党的天下。||8:然而在十一月份的竞选中44%的德克萨斯拉美裔选民支持共和党做州长，该州暂时仍然会是保守派的天下。
