After criticism for his Latino outreach efforts, the Romney campaign is finally up with a Spanish-Language website as well as a new Spanish-language ad. 

The ad is a positive spot featuring Craig Romney, the Romney’s youngest son, speaking in Spanish about his father.

“I want to tell you who my father is, Mitt Romney,” Craig Romney says in Spanish. “He is a man of great convictions. He’s been married for over 40 years to my mom. Together they have five sons and 18 grandchildren. He loves our country greatly. What he has achieved has been through hard work — and it is with that same dedication that he will fight to get our country on the right track and create jobs.”

“The campaign will not cede one inch of ground to the Democratic machine.  We’re not competing dollar for dollar with the Obama campaign on Hispanic votes,” said a senior Romney campaign official told the Daily Caller Tuesday about the ad. The source added a comment about Romney’s stance on immigration.“Nor do we view the Hispanic community – as Democrats do – as a monolith. Make no mistake, this campaign will not  take the bait on Obama’s pandering on immigration, which  — as today’s ABC News poll shows, and despite MSM hysteria — had no positive effect on [v]oters at all.”
