Video: GOP candidates attempt to lure Latino vote

>>> i like immigration. immigration has been an extraordinary source of strength in this country. immigrants form more businesses than domestic born americans.

>> i think the idea we're going to deport grandmothers and grandfathers is a sufficient level of inhumanity. first of all, it's never going to happen.

>> the latino vote makes up over 22% in florida . gingrich's campaign pulled down a spanish radio ad after senator marco rubio said this kind of language is more than just unfortunate, it's inaccurate, inflammatory and does not belong in this campaign. erin, thanks for your time. in your piece, the first line captures so much you say targeting specific coalitions wasn't much en vogue until the campaigns came to the sunshine state . now a battle is raging for the latino vote in south florida . it seems both campaigns are making stumbles along the way that could cost them that vote.

>> they certainly are, tamron. this radio ad that newt gingrich 's campaign had to take down that offended marco rubio was a big problem. it took away from some of the language that both campaigns are using to target the voters and the kinds of ideas that they are trying to show they have with the latino community here in florida . they both had interviews with univision, and they both got into some details about their policies toward latin america and latin america voters here. they didn't really hear much because it's been this personal battle between the two. romney's commented about deportation have come up and they tried to talk about that the but it's become a personal battle.

>> we might hear the same kind of attack line from both of these candidates tonight in this latest debate. i'm sure newt gingrich will pick up again on the self-deportation line. none of the real big names are coming out for candidate one way or the other. you have marco rubio willing to criticize newt gingrich , but he's not come out in favor or backed a candidate yet. what's the holdup there?

>> marco rubio has said he's going to remain neutral in this race. i will point out that mitt romney does have the support of a number of latino leaders in florida . he's also been campaigning with them. a senator from florida was campaigning with mitt romney yesterday. they're not ready to declare a candidate of choice. you do see a lot of elected leaders starting to go in the direction of mitt romney .

>> i know you're on the road. we thank you for joining us p.
