Immortal talks about the corner Obama has been backed into and lays out why he thinks Hillary Clinton and the Republicans have worked together behind the scenes to try and cripple and ultimately take away Obama’s presidential bid.

Immortal concludes this interview by talking frankly about the Latino vote and the role it will play in the 2008 elections. He talks about the meetings Republican candidate John McCain has had with California governor Arnold Scwartznegger and how that may possibly lead to McCain obtaining a sizeable portion of the Latino vote.
