Mexican-hater Tom Tancredo only got 36% of the vote last week when he ran for Governor of Colorado (which I guess means that over a third of the residents of Colorado are also Mexican-haters) and now he is going to get his butt kicked by the OC Weekly’s Managing Editor, Gustavo Arellano, as they square off in a debate this Tuesday, Nov. 16, in Colorado.

Arellano will be in Colorado as the recipient of the Metro State 2010 Richard T. Castro Distinguished Visiting Professorship, according to the OC Weekly’s sister paper, the Denver Westword.

The debate is set for 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, November 16, at Curious Theatre Company, 1080 Acoma Street.

Arellano said that “The debate wasn’t my idea but rather the brainchild of Patty Calhoun, editor of our sister paper Westword. She has pestered him for years to set up a debate between the two of us–now that he has nothing better to do than yammer with a wab, why not?” over in the OC Weekly.

Kudos to Arellano on receiving a Visiting Professorship.  It should be great fun wrecking Tancredo too!
