    I'd be more concerned if he shouted out, "are you ready to put me in the equation? Cause you're my girl. Oh Ronnie?!"

    GLORIA ESTEFAN:
    Mr. President, would you be able to send holiday greeting to all the Hispanics watching? Did you practice your Spanish?


    BARACK OBAMA:
    Uh.. sí, sí... estufa verde es muy bonita y uh, dos tacos por favor...
    ¿verdad? gracias. How's that?

    I'm sorry, but this sounds like code for the dirtiest question ever asked a president. Maybe it would have been better directed to the First Lady.

    Hard to believe she threw out such softballs. And I had just started to develop a respect for her interview style after watching "Estefan/Nixon" on Showtime.

    @MyNameIsChris: Classic.

    And really, if you are Gloria Estefan, what are the odds you'd being endlessly mocked for asking anything other than a softball question? I don't think political analysis is her milieu.

    Warning us about the threat of the rhythm getting [us] is more up her alley.
