Seems like "true" Conservatives can never catch a break.

Perhaps your Congressman Stockman has separated his Senate Campaign from his official Congressional auspices. Could be there are FEC rules here that are applicable.

I don’t understand your “weird” comments about him. Why this? Why now?

Sorry, but there just isn’t enough here for me to feel good about.

When all the Democrat papers in TX refer to the “Cornyn V. Stockman” race, you know they are promoting this idea because Stockman is an easy target for Cornyn’s attack ads. He is a flake with a checkered past who should be replaced by a serious candidate with a chance to win. We hope Dwayne Stovall can gain some traction before Election Day.

Stockman has run a bizarre campaign. I had high hopes for him, in the beginning...due to his being a current Rep and name recognition.

He’s pretty much been AWOL, except for his twitter “tweets”. No mailers, no web ads, no TV commercials, etc.

I’m voting for Dwayne Stovall. I’d like to see more ads from Dwayne, too. All I see/hear are non-stop “I’m a Conservative” Corny and Stockman smear ads :(

Anyone voting for Stockman will rapidly find out he is actually a Cornyn Strawman who was put up by Cornyn or his cronies to keep Cornyn in the Senate. If Strawman Stockman gets in the runoff he will campaign no more than he has for the Primary, guaranteeing Cornyn’s reelection.

Stovall is actually wanting to replace Cornyn, is conservative without any doubt. He has been endorsed by many Tea Party orgs. Stovall is as close to another Cruz as will have running. His problem is lack of campaign funds and Strawman drawing enough ill-informed votes to keep Stovall from being #2 in a runoff.

Let’s not fall for another Virginia style MacAwful libertarian strawman, vote Stovall in the Primary.

I’ve never seen either of them as serious, realistic challengers for Cornyn. Don’t even bring up Ted Cruz, there ain’t one this year.

I won’t vote for Cornyn but I’m not voting for Stockman or Stovall either.

Stovall is the man. I’ve met him twice. He is conservative and he’s busting his butt across the state.

My wife and I went to vote last Saturday. There were zero campaign signs for Stockman or Stovall.

In the back of my mind is lurking the thought that the Stockman candidacy was all manufactured and the only one who will truly benefit from it is Cornyn, particularly if he and Stockman end up in a runoff.

I keep thinking that if Stockman was truly trying to unseat Cornyn he would be running a very aggressive campaign but I have yet to see any of it. My mailbox on a daily basis is full of continuous brochures from all the candidates except Stockman. I have had robocalls from several of the candidates asking that we vote for them but none for Stockman. No one from his campaign office has called and asked if he could speak to our group. I have yet to see any campaign ads on TV from him. Just nothing!

Suspicious? Yes. Rightly so? Would welcome comments from others.

Stockman has had a good voting record, but he doesn’t seem interested in winning.

Stockman doesn’t even have as good a conservative rating by some groups as Cornyn does. Hard to see how he is much of a step up, compared to someone like Stovall.
