But let's be realistic. If Texas is to elect a governor who happens to be Hispanic by 2018, that person would likely need to have reasonably high public profile by now. I don't know of such a person who would fit that bill and be on that sort of projection. Maybe like Obama in Illinois, he or she will come out of relatively no where, but that's not likely, which leads me to believe an Obama-like Texas politician is likely blooming in some high school or middle school right now.

A tad bit arrogant don't you think? People are pretty astute. They know politicians promise the world and deliver nothing. Do you remember Reagan's promise to put a lock box on social security? Like that will ever happen. People like Barak because of his character and people seem to be willing to vote based on character instead of promises. Promises have never worked in the past, so why not trust character. I predict Hutchinson will lose the governor's race to a Latino from the RGV. When a true Democrat and Latino willing to denounce the political machine of the RGV steps up to the plate, the RGV will vote and vote big. Remember my words. On election night we will decide where you will buy me lunch. You base your opinion on the idea that you some how know every up and coming Latino in the State of Texas.
