Original: When you're down by 25%, nothing you say is going to help, Steve Hilton (R-CA) https://www. mediaite.com/media/news/we-s
Steve Hilton, Republican candidate for California governor, has outlined a plan for English-only schools, drawing criticism. The remark comes as Hilton trails in polls, with commentators noting that a candidate down roughly 25 points has little prospect of changing the race through policy announcements like this one.
Why now: A Republican gubernatorial candidate is promoting a controversial English-only schools plan while trailing badly in the polls.
