Hinz has a generally good look at the field here, but leaves out the guy with a $300,000 head start fundraising–Manny Flores. He raised the money for a potential race for Guitierez’s seat and has it sitting in a federal account if he makes a go of it.
Flores appears to be serious and in a divided field would have a built in constituency and money. I like several of the people thinking of getting in this race so I’m not pushing anyone, but ignoring Manny would be a mistake.
