Haha! The Parent Trap OR The Voter Trap...
 

Ok, this is good political humor. One of San Antonio's 10 city council members is running for mayor. His name is Julian Castro. He has a twin brother who looks EXACTLY like him named Juaquin (who is a state representative). They are 29 and have big ole political aspirations. I used to work with their mom when I worked for the city. They are real smart young guys. Both attorneys. One is a Stanford grad, the other is a Harvard Grad. The election is in two weeks.

Well.... Julian couldnt make the river parade where all the council members were to appear on the float. SO HE SENT HIS BROTHER TO PRETEND IT WAS HIM, lol, AND THEN GOT BUSTED. Hahha.

Councilman Julián Castro and his identical twin brother, Joaquin Castro, today denied the switcheroo at the river parade, or at least denied that they tried to play city residents for fools.

The incident, in which Joaquin Castro rode aboard a City Council float at the Texas Cavaliers River Parade Monday night, started to make national news, so Julian Castro tried to clear it all up....

This has got to be one of the weirdest politcal stories I've ever read. This is a Saturday Night Live skit waiting to happen.

Imagine a Disney movie.

I saw this yesterday on the news. I thought it was cute... and yead, SNL will have a field day with this one.
