First term Rep. Joaquin Castro, D-Texas, represents Texas’ 20th congressional district, made up of the western half of San Antonio and Bexar County. The district reflects the 64 percent Latino population in San Antonio. Castro and his twin brother, Julian, the mayor of San Antonio, are considered rising stars in the Democratic Party. ....
Castro shared his thoughts on what Texans are now thinking about the Republican junior senator, whose father is originally from Cuba.
“During the government shutdown and now with the possibility of defaulting on the debt, Texans have realized his role and how extreme his voice is in Congress. People understand that he was the cause of the government shutdown. The impact on Texans has been devastating,” said Castro, who is of Mexican descent. ....
“Texas has the highest percentage of people without insurance at 25 percent, and 38 percent of Latinos in Texas don’t have health coverage. The governor and the Republican (controlled) Legislature have been completely tone deaf to that. I have worked with local agencies to make sure that the Affordable Care Act rollout is as successful as possible. We have been working with local agencies and local groups to sign up as many people as possible. We will continue to press Governor Perry and the Legislature to expand Medicaid,” Castro said.

It would be very difficult, but we’ve seen how terribly libtards perform in recall elections from Walker to Morse and Giron.
If we were able to recall this Marxist filth, and in doing so destroy his future aspirations, I would be a happy man.
Devastating?
I did not see so much as a hiccup.
In fact, right here in a hotbed of both illegal aliens and anchor babies known as east Dallas I did not see any indication that ANYTHING was affected at all.
Zero. Nada. Nothing.
Looks like little Castro sees the world through obama glasses...
.
They mean they’ve realized how threatening Cruz is to their gay extravaganza.
It is well-known that Mexicanos are a rung or two below Cubans in the Latino hierarchy.
Sorry, Joaquin, you jerk, but I just had to point that out!
“I don’t think they’ll be able to read all of those regulations.”
They can’t read them because not only do they not speak English, they can’t read English. Mexicans are taking over Texas. I would hate to even see how many kids are in ESL classes. Expand Medicaid? NO!!!!
Huh?
Cruz's mother is Eleanor Elizabeth Wilson Darragh Cruz.
Sounds downright Montezuma to me! Not.
Castro admits he got into college ahead of more qualified whites.
Gee, a Demo criticizing a Republican. How strange.
Well this native Texan disagrees with this liar , this socialist democrat, this polidiot.... but I repeat myself.
Cruz will get my vote and support.
MSM presstitutes suck, literally ..... Doom on em all for the damage they do this country promoting its destruction piecemeal ...
My opinion.
Stay Safe Joe !
Joaquin Castro thinks his fellow DemonRATs have nailed their Republican foes with their standoff no compromise trick. Castro thinks he has the game in the bag and all he has to do is parrot the talking points like a mind-numbed robot and all will be easy money. We are smarter than this racist DemonRAT stooge who is gearing up for the next battle: Illegal Alien amnesty.
Zer0 has already telegraphed his next move designed to vilify Republicans with the Hispanic and Asian electorate. The move for immigration reform will be the ramming of amnesty down our throats. This will be one more sector of the electorate that the DemonRATs will use our tax money to buy the vote.
