#1 As long as Santos has the support of the Latino voting block he is not going any where voluntarily. The Latino voting block is growing every day in the US. If he loses that support he is gone.

#2 Less work for him. "Don't throw me into that briar patch."

Why should his constituents be any more concerned about him than AOCs constituents are concerned about her performance? They're the only ones he has to answer to.

#3 It sure takes a special type to get into politics.

#4 Theoretically, only the voters in his district should matter. Beto’s popularity with Californians probably hurt his chances in his own district, for instance. Certainly heritage makes a difference but both sides could run Latino candidates or he could be primaried by Shakira, if she is Repulican. It would also be good if she was a citizen and lived in the district but that seems to matter less and less both for running purposes and for voting.

#5 Last comment led me down a series of rat holes. ‘Shaka Khan is a Pub?’ Shaka died in 1828? Oh, Shakira. I…. I’ll just be over there In the far corner. All my fault.

#6 Gregarious. Yes. Better to be thought a fool than speak and remove all doubt. George should have taken that to heart.

#7 I grow weary of hearing about this guy. OK, he's flawed. But is he any worse than these people?

Maybe I shouldn't ask because I'm sick and tired of hearing about them too.

#8 And at least Santos never claimed to have had a run-in with Corn Pop.

#9 As long as Santos has the support of the Latino voting block

His district is very Jewish, and they’ll never vote for him again.

#10 #8 is a snark of the day contender.
