“Whatcha need my help with?” asked Mark, even though he was sure he at least knew part of the answer.
"Texas is a must-win state for me. There's serious doubts I can overcome Richardson's investments in Iowa and South Carolina, he's saturated those states and I can fight as much as I want, but he's been running for President for the past twenty years. Super Tuesday needs to be strong for me. I'm doing real good in California, but I need to win Texas." He sighed, shaking his head. "I will obviously support your congressional bid irrespective of any decision you make, but I really need a strong Texas surrogate."
“Mmhm...I’m not necessarily the best choice if you’re trying to pull in Wolf voters with an ‘illegals are terrorizing your towns’ message. So first thing’s first, if I gotta talk tough on immigration, that’s no bueno. My neighbor is a Mexican, my niece is half-Mexican, I got Mexicans working for me, and this whole new Republicans hating on them thing is a load of crap. I have friends down in Laredo, gun-toting Tea Partiers, and they’re all Mexican. They voted (not-Johnson) because they were fed up with Wolf ragging on their fellow Hispanics. They’re just like white people, but they work harder and cook better. So if we’re pandering to toothless meth-head Neo-Nazis with xenophobic garbage, I’m out. I’m only gonna treat immigrants, legal or not, with dignity and respect. Like Jesus would if this was his country.”
