NEW YORK (CNN) — John McCain's presidential campaign is making an 11th hour appeal to Cuban Americans in Florida with a robo-call that says Barack Obama would pursue "political policies like those of Cuba."

The automated Spanish-language telephone calls began late this afternoon into Cuban households, particularly in and around the southern part of the state, and quote a Reuters story that says former Cuban leader Fidel Castro prefers Obama win the presidency.

McCain and Obama are in a fierce battle for Florida's 27 electoral votes.

Translated script:

Urgent: I am calling on behalf of John McCain to tell you that today at 1:28 this afternoon the independent news organization of Reuters reported that the Cuban dictator, Fidel Castro, has given his support to Democrat Barack Obama for being smarter and more sophisticated than John McCain. Just like Hugo Chavez, Daniel Ortega, and Evo Morales - the brothers of Castro prefer Barack Obama. Don't give Castro what he wants. Go vote right now for John McCain and avoid establishing in the United States political policies like those of Cuba. There are only a few hours left today to vote for John McCain. This call has been paid for by McCain/Palin 2008.

1. We need to find out where this shite originates and expose them. I've saved all the racist

hate filled emails I've received, complete with the names of those who sent and forwarded them. I have half a notion to send forward all those that have work emails attached to their human resource departments.

Lets all do it and expose these cowards once and for all.

Or not.

2. This is some crazy bullshit.

If the election had gone on for another week, what would it have been? We've resurrected Jesus Christ and he says not to vote for Obama?

3. photoshop of Obama playing poker with Karl Marx, Himmler & Pontius Pilate?

4. I wouldn't be surprised. They've gone off the deep end. n/t
