Praeli appeared during a segment of CNN’s “Situation Room” on Hillary Clinton’s waffling views on illegal immigration. “Advocates say she’s speaking out of both sides of her mouth,” the narration said.

“If you want Latinos to stand with you, if you want the immigrant community to see you as a champion on this issue, you’re going to have to make some difficult choices,” Praeli said. “And you’re going to have to take a firm position.”

“[Clinton’s] book is ‘Hard Choices,'” CNN reporter Dana Bash pointed out.

“Yeah, it didn’t seem that way yesterday,” Praeli shot back. (RELATED: Hillary Clinton Flip-Flops On Driver’s Licenses For Illegal Immigrants)
