Castro is unqualified and it will become evident very quickly that he isnt ready for primetime. Mayor of San Antonio and HUD Sec would make him the least qualified candidate in living memory.
Given Hil's advanced age and failing facilities, there is a higher chance of his becoming President before Hildog is finished her term(s).

I don't see what the problem is. San Antonio is the size of a small state, and he moved on to a Cabinet position.

Mayor doesnt have the same responsbilities as a governor

Still way more qualified than Palin.

Nope, Palin dealt with energy policy.

If Palin and Quayle were qualified this guy certainly is.

Quayle was a 8 year Senator. Palin lost.

Yeah, if you're 8 or younger, but I doubt that's the demographic Hillary would be going for.

He is less qualified than Palin.

Really?   At least he can form complete sentences while giving a speech...that's gotta count for something!

I bet he cant. He'll fall flat on his face on the campaign trail

The question is: what is a bigger boost: Castro's boost to Hispanic vote or Kaine's boost to VA?

While I wouldn't say Kaine guarantees Virginia, but he probably assures a small, but significant bump. I also think Kaine plays decently in the Midwest, which is where Republicans would likely look to make up Electoral Votes. He's also smart, competent, and a nice guy.

Seeing as the Hispanic vote is fairly concentrated in both Texas and California, I'm not sure Castro would really boost the ticket in terms of Electoral Votes.

Taaa Daaaaa.....you just won prize of the day.

Contrary to popular belief the Hispanic vote doesnt matter. It is concentrated in states like TX, CA, IL, NJ. This is why Romney needed to win 72% of the hispanic vote in order to win in 2012.
