...every woman has made the heartbreaking choice to leave Mabini. Shyrelyn Esguerra Diaz - "Baby" to her friends - still lives in Little Italy with her 5-year-old son Magnus in a comfortable home with high ceilings and a grassy yard out front. Sitting on the couch next to his mom, Magnus lets out a wheeze of concentration, his chubby thumbs flying on a video game, while Diaz wonders aloud whether she should move to Rome, where she can earn more money and join her husband who already works there. When Magnus first overheard her saying that her work permit...

Obama looks to be in a statistical dead heat with McCain in the district (just as the Democratic challenger in the 25th, Joe Garcia, is neck-and-neck with the Cuban-American GOP incumbent, Mario Diaz-Balart). The key is how many Cuban-Americans Obama can poach from the GOP; and Obama volunteer Jose Realin thinks he can deliver them. Realin, 38, a bail bondsman and a lifelong registered Republican now on the Democrat's side, was heading out of the Obama campaign office in the 25th on Monday evening to knock on doors in Cuban neighborhoods. "They worry that...

...million Latinos living in Arizona, who make up 4% of the U.S. Latino population. The Pew Center estimates that there are 677,525 eligible Latino voters, the majority of them under age 30, accounting for 17% of voters in the Grand Canyon State. "The Hispanic vote has been challenging," Diaz concedes. "Some of that can be directly attributed to the debate on immigration, but keep in mind that Senator McCain, especially in his home state, is well known and is trusted and has stood up for all of his constituents, including Hispanics, time and time again...
