brian: first off, julian castro, mayor of san antonio, they re saying look fourth him. what do you know about him? by all appearances, he is a talented young leader. he gave a very strong speech and i m glad he had the opportunity to do so. brian: right. and in terms of he s the first keynote speaker. but in terms of you, for example, people are saying look out for ted cruz. you were watching him, do you see a future opponent there? well, the democratic party has a problem, which is if you look at the whole convention here, you did not see a single hispanic elected official elected statewide speaking at this convention. a week ago in tampa, you had two sitting governors, both of whom are hispanic, susanna martinez and sandoval. you had senator marco rubio. then me from our campaign in texas. there is a stark difference. and i think part of the reason is, in the democrat the democratic party likes to put everyone in these categories and they pigeon hole you that you re the, qu
before, a state governor facing a recall vote. the first two sitting governors lost those elections. in wisconsin, governor scott walker hopes to become the first to actually keep his job, but he faces a very tight race after a campaign that has shattered state spending records and further divided a state already polarized. joining us now in wisconsin, neil cavuto, the anchor of cavuto at 8 p.m. eastern on fox business network, and ian walkshaw, jon mccormack is a staff writer for the weekly standard. john, i m going to start with you first because neil gets all kind of air time here. you have been watching this race for a while. what are you looking for in terms of the indicators of today s election? it s all going to come down to turn out. polls have shown scott walker with a steady lead of about seven points, actually, but it all depends on whether the republican districts and milwaukee suburbs turn out or if that can be overwhelmed.
will jump on that one? eric holder is presiding over the most politicized justice department in recent history. dismissed black panthers intimidation case. suing states like arizona over their illegal immigration laws. blocking reasonable voter i.d. laws like one just passed in texas. now of course we have fast and furious. . this is why, so many republicans, 121 members of congress, three senators, two sitting governors and all the republican presidential candidates are calling for holder to resign because in the fast and furious case we have two federal agents who now lay dead. we have an attorney general who presided over a program of gun running across an international border and he claims he,000 nothing about it. well that is either the attorney general either lying or gross incompetence. monica, let me go back couple things you said. first, the bush administration dismissed the
lawmakers calling for attorney general eric holder s resignation over operation fast & furious. now a democrat appears to be jumping on board. an oklahoma congressman was asked if he still supports holder. his response no comment. this is the first time a democrat openly refused to support holder. 120 congressmen, three senators, two sitting governors and all major g.o.p. candidates are demanding his resignation. homeless people being used as hot spots? that is what s happening at this year s south by southwest festival. a marketing firm has hired homeless men to wander around the festival wearing t-shirts with numbers to call if anyone needs to access a wi-fi hot spot. they actually carry the physical hot spot in their pocket. the service has sparked debates all over the internet. some say the men are being used as objects and others say they re getting paid, what s the big deal? and those are your headlines. that s fascinating. do the homeless people this
