Former San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro came away from the midterm election heartened by Democratic successes and seemingly intent on running for his party's nomination for president in 2020.

"I'm hoping to run and will make a final decision in the next few weeks," Castro said.

Castro, 44, who was housing secretary in the Obama administration, has given every indication he will join what likely will be a Democratic field bulging with candidates.

With the midterms over, an array of party hopefuls is expected to declare candidacies later this year and early in 2020.

Kamaltoe, Corey, and Nacho will mow him over. Doesn't stand a chance.
