Indeed. Cornyn has been making much more conservative sounds lately. But so did McCain before his last Senate run and so did Hatch. I don't trust him an inch.
Cornyn is soooo GOPe it is sickening.
During the Alaska primary when Miller beat old sour puss up there / Lisa Murkowski / remember that Lisa was all lawyered up and challenged Miller’s primary victory and then ran as independent? I called Cornyn (head of the Senatorial Campaign Committee) at his main TX office. I called to complain that Miller won and for them to stop backing Murkowski in that race. The young punk who answered the phone told me that Cornyn HAD TO send lawyers up to Alaska as she was a sitting Senator and had to support HER. I said what are you talking about, MILLER WON the primary.. he repeated his statement and I told him that is the reason a conservative will NEVER EVER, EVER donate money to his GOP Senate Campaign Committee. Why would we. Kid says sorry to hear that. I said not as sorry as I was that Cornyn claimed to be a Republican. Told them SHAME on them and hung up.
>> I don’t trust him an inch.
Neither do I.
But on the immigration bill, at least, Cornyn will be FORCED to commit to one side or the other, well before campaign season. The rest of the pro-amnesty crowd will see to that.
Hopefully Sen. Cruz will be able to bend him the right way, against his natural instincts to be a go-along-get-along.
