Bree Van De Kamp:  It was my first week in college , and I went to a meeting of the Young Republicans , where Rex gave a speech and I went up to him afterward and introduced myself and told him that I agreed with his stance on the death penalty , and ... he took me out to a diner and , uh , we stayed up until _ 2 _ in the morning talking about big government , gun control and illegal immigration . It was just ... it was just such a magical night .
