Mayor Julián Castro gets immigration debate challenge from state Sen. Dan Patrick in Twitter spat
SAN ANTONIO — Your move, mayor.
A Twitter spat between Mayor Julián Castro and state Sen. Dan Patrick, a Republican candidate for lieutenant governor, over immigration has led to an immigration debate challenge from Patrick that has, so far, gone unanswered by Castro see comment.
“Congratulations @danpatrick. You are the most anti-immigrant Republican running for statewide office. You are the Pete Wilson of Texas” Castro tweeted Tuesday night, which started the Twitter spat.
Patrick, R-Houston, responded Wednesday by saying, “talk is cheap mayor, if you want to debate this in San Antonio, tell me when and I'll be there.”
Patrick then added that he is “proud to wear the badge of securing our border (because) your buddy (President Barack) Obama created this illegal invasion.”

"Let's do that, Dan Patrick," Castro tweeted.
This should be good...maybe they'll bring back duels..
