Hollywood Blacklist 2: Actress Out Of San Francisco Production After Endorsing Tea Party Candidate

CBS SF   "A famed actress is facing backlash in San Francisco’s Latino community, after she voiced support for a conservative candidate for California governor.
"Maria Conchita Alonso starred in a campaign ad for Assemblyman Tim Donnelly of San Bernardino County, a Tea Party favorite who is seeking the Republican nomination.

You have to see this really nifty ad:


"Donnelly has voiced strong views against illegal immigration and was once involved with the Minutemen Project, a group that patrolled the border with Mexico to catch immigrants coming across.
....
"Standing next to Donnelly, Alonso jokingly translated in Spanish, “We’re screwed.' ”
....
"Alonso is an actress of Cuban and Venezuelan descent. She is perhaps best known for her role in the movie “Moscow on the Hudson” which also starred Robin Williams."
