CD 23 Candidate Speaks to El Paso Democratic Party
Okay, its been a while since I've posted one of these videos - but hey, its election time so expect to see every candidate I come across giving a speech to be posted.
One of the reasons you readers come to the LSB is because you expect me to call it how I see it. Well, I only caught the last part of her speech, which was pretty much the least interesting part of her speech.
I can't remember the candidate's whole name - it was Rosie something. I spoke to here after the meeting and she seemed to be really nice. Very personable.
And passionate.
A little too passionate.
She started with the I'm-a-Latina-Gina-Is-Filipina line. We've heard that line before a couple of years ago.
But wow - she really didn't have a good performance. She said she didn't come to El Paso to campaign for the Congressional District 23 seat, that she came here to mourn with El Pasoans. So maybe we can just chalk it up to her being kind of emotional.
Whatever the reason actually was - she gave a speech that seemed to ramble into a few different places and not make much sense other than the three take aways I got from the speech - she's from San Antonio, she thinks people in El Paso are too nice (she said that repeatedly, as if to really emphasize the point) - and she REALLY likes to yell when she speaks.
The speech didn't go over too well and as you can kinda tell from the reaction of the crowd, people were kind of confused.
Whatever her intent to get across was, it didn't work. I'm sure she'll be back and maybe next time she'll do better?
Who knows, but if she's going to be a viable candidate, she's going to have to really improve in a short period of time.
And maybe not through around the phrase that El Pasoans are too nice like she means it like an insult. We pride ourselves on being nice.
