Some excertps :
And in battleground states with significant Latino populations such as Nevada, New Mexico, Colorado, Florida and Virginia, the campaigns have aired a barrage of TV and radio ads in Spanish, some used to attack the opposing candidate's immigration stance, despite both sides having relatively similar positions
.............................
Obama also this week began airing a commercial, called the "American Dream," that showed him directly addressing the camera and speaking in Spanish for its entirety — a first for presidential candidates.
......................
The closest precedent may have been in 1960, when Jacqueline Kennedy made a minutelong case for her husband in Spanish, ending with "Que viva Kennedy!"
.........................
Adam Segal, director of the Hispanic Voting Project at Johns Hopkins University, said the commercial is "the icing on the cake from the Obama Hispanic outreach effort."
