I was watching a news interview a few days ago, and thought that I was listening to Julián, but it turned out to be his brother Joaquin. They look alike, sound alike, think alike... I’m confused!!😐
The chances for anyone new breaking into the top 5 are diminishing but I think Castro has some chance to do that. I'll be reading more about him. I was pretty dismissive of his chances early but I think he is worth a closer look.
He'll need to begin to pull from Biden and Buttigieg. And pretty fast to stay in the debates.
I read his book and came away generally mostly impressed. I thought he might be a good option for the 'moderate lane,' but I think he was probably badly hurt by the emphasis on immigration in the Wed. debate.
His crowning achievement as San Antonio mayor was 'pre-K for SA' (universal pre-K) which I would be strongly opposed to. Thinking back to my own childhood, I got little out of kindergarten. I had already learned to read by my mother reading stories to me as I sat on her lap. I found kindergarten to be a waste of time. And now they want to send kids to school at age 3???
