Maybe we get someone to take it for the team (0.00 / 0)

To your point, I wrote a column in Plaza de Armas with an idea of Castro running at the top of the ticket in 2014 with a ballot filled with some really good down ballot candidates. I know I'm going to take dings in here but I've written off a 2014 gubernatorial victory and ceded it to Republicans. Going against Abbott (Perry's going to be asked to follow Palin's lead) will be really hard, if not impossible.

Instead, have Castro create ballot draw, especially among Hispanic voters to help other down ballot Democrats get elected. Castro can come back in 2018 and run for governor or Cruz's seat.

I know it's radical politics but maybe we need something like that.
