@jonathanweisman Bob Menendez & Ted Cruz have same chance of getting to White House.
Latino GOP has 2 governors, 2 senators, now 1 Senate candidate, 1 top presidential hopeful. Dems have Bob Menendez in statewide office.

@richardmskinner True, but Rubio is a contender, Susana Martinez and Brian Sandoval were in the mix for veep just last year. -
@jonathanweisman Sandoval has zero chance of being on GOP ticket. He's pro-choice.

Can u legitimately contend for WH from House? “
@monkeycageblog: .@jonathanweisman I guess the House doesn't count? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Hispanic_and_Latino_Americans_in_the_United_States_Congress …” -
@jonathanweisman Not usually, but if you're talking about a party's bench, you have to consider the House and state legislatures too. -
@jonathanweisman Farm team of Latino Democratic officeholders still larger. Where future Senators, governors, and presidents come from. -
@monkeycageblog@jonathanweisman Maybe 'bench' is wrong word, but top-level elected GOP Latinos a more impressive roster. -
@DLeonhardt@jonathanweisman But GOP push to get top level Latinos may just signal their weakness with Latino voters. - 1 more reply
