How about we find someone other than Cornyn and Stockman? Why is Stockman a bad choice? I dont know that he is a bad choice. Cornyn has been is the Senate for 12 years. Its time for him to go elsewhere before he he becomes more corrupt than 12 years in the Senate will get you. TERM LIMITS are key you idiots! #36 posted on December 14, 2013 12:50:45 PM CST by BreezyDog
We are most definitely NOT for Coryn for more than just he has been there 12 years BUT that is a great one!!!
When the IRS scandal was coming out and everyone went somewhere to freep, we went to Cornyn's office. Not only outside but we went into talk to someone there. Told him Cornyn isn't conservative and he got upset with me and said so and so says he is the second most conservative in the Senate. I don't buy it!
I'm for anybody else but we still need to check out the candidates. Not just take anybody who signed up. Maybe we can get together on one of the guys and just beat Cornyn.
On Republican congressional primary races where a RINO (or near-RINO) is being challenged in a red state/district where there will be a runoff if nobody gets 50% in the primary, I try to encourage folks (and candidates) to focus on attacking the RINO. Do positive messaging to point out why one challenger is better or best, but dont attack other challengers since EACH challenger can serve to take votes away from the RINO in the primary and help keep him below 50%. Lets keep our eyes on the prizea truly conservative Republican majority caucus in the Senate and in the House with truly conservative leaders. The 2014 election cycle offers ample opportunity to advance toward and/or achieve this goal. Lets not form circular firing squads with conservatives firing at one another. # 41 posted on December 14, 2013 12:52:40 PM CST by House Atreides
An old freeper friend Gracey always would lament "how Republicans would eat their own" and "dems always fought for the slimest candidates". I'm with you there let us research the guys and everyone vote for someone other than Cornyn. He used to be good but there is something in the water in DC and I think he drinks the water.
It's going to take everybody that has filed against Cornyn to pull enough votes to keep him under 50%. Vega will have to get votes, Stovall will have to get votes, and Stockman will have to get votes to take Cornyn to a run-off.
One person can't beat Cornyn, any more than Cruz could beat Dewhurst without all of the other candidates pulling votes from Dewhurst and keeping him under 50%.
We don't need to get together. Everyone needs to vote for their candidate that isn't Cornyn.
