I agree that nominating Canseco is the right move for TX-23.

As for TX-36

Canseco should be a no-brainer for TX-23. It’s a 63% Hispanic district, and nominating a black Anglo from San Antonio won’t win us votes from wavering Mexican-Americans in Eagle Pass or Del Rio. Canseco is a Mexican-American originally from Laredo and won the seat in 2010 before being defeated in 2012; he’d give us our best shot of winning it back.

In TX-36, I’d prefer Streusand, at least partly because I think that he would just keep the seat warm for when James White runs in 2016 (Babin is from the same area as White and might block his nomination).
