Of all the soaring rhetoric we heard from the podium the last couple of days, and Whee Doggies, there were some great lines..... the best line I heard was given in an interview up in the FOX booth when Texas Senator to be Cruz was speaking with Caputo.
The topic turned to the Hispanic vote (naturally) and at one point, Cruz drew back and looked at Caputo: "We can argue all we want about immigration, legal or illegal, but as a friend of mine pointed out one day, 'Have you ever seen a Hispanic panhandler?', he asked." And then he answered his own question - it's a matter of pride. To be a panhandler is to admit failure......
Well shucks folks, I live down here in Texas in an area that is over 50% Hispanic and after giving it serious thought --- I've got to agree, I have never seen a Mexican or Hispanic appearing panhandler either on the street or standing on the freeway street corners.. Have you?
The second best line of the week came from Paul Ryan in his nomination acceptance speech..... it struck such a chord that it's already been developed into a striking GOP poster ad........
(if you can't read it, click on it, then hit return)
If you still can't read the small print, it says: "College graduates should not have to live out their 20s in their childhood bedrooms, staring up at fading Obama posters and wondering the can move out and get going with life." - Paul Ryan
