I am a 13 yr. Freeper, and made similar comments about Stockman, and was also similarly told to keep to keep my mouth shut about the guy.

I am one of his consitutents, and a supporter of his at the house level. I have known the guy since 1988, when we discussed a Dole challenge to GHWB. I think the guy is a good conservative, but is not a serious challenge to the RINO Cornyn. He just doesn't have it at various critical competentcies that will ring with voters. The Cruz challenge to Dewhurst is an apples and oranges scenario as far as I am concerned.

It is not our fault that a viable candidate didn't emerge, and I hope my fellow Freepers choose their battles wisely. Don't get me wrong, I will vote for him, but it is a lost cause.

There is absolutely NO point in trashmouthing a candidate that can pull votes from Cornyn to keep him below 50%. I want Cornyn gone. I won't trashtalk any of the candidates in the primary against him because all of them will have to pull votes to put Cornyn in a run-off. Vega, Stovall, Stockman. All of them.

I know who I'll be voting for, but we've got some strong Vega and Stovall supporters here on FR, and I encourage them to vote for their candidate and not Cornyn.

Trashtalk Cornyn all you like. ;)
