I would expect nothing less from a mature swamp rat. It’s good to see Texans waking up to the lies. Scott Pressler is a gentleman and Cornyn knows he’s been beat. He’ll be an angry, vindictive Senator for a few months.

Thune was considered a conservative when he was first elected. Did he sell out for sex, money, or both? That is the question.

The second would be was it underage sex.

Just John Wayne McCornyn being John Wayne McCornyn. He only moved right for a short time prior to the election to con people into believing he is conservative then going back to being a grifting RINO hack the instant the election is over.

We finally dumped him. Better late than never.

Good riddance!

I'd like to see Texas Gov. Greg Abbott call on Sen. Cornyn to resign and let him appoint a replacement for the good of Texas if Cornyn can't bring himself to support Texas in his last remaining months in Congress.

One of the bright sides of being (currently) unemployed is I don't have to commute to downtown Dallas 3 days a week. During those commutes, I usually listen to Mark Davis for about 15 minutes.

I knew Cornyn was in big trouble when he deigned to appear on Davis' show several times this year. I don't recall him doing that in the past.

You're right, Davis cut Cornyn too much slack, and I don't recall pressing him over the SAVE Act. If Cornyn had the influence in the Senate that he said he had, the SAVE Act would have flown through the Senate to Trump's desk.

I voted for Paxton, because he'll be a Senator that will look out for Texas first, instead of the Swamp and the Better Business Bureau.

Absolutely no surprise at all that King Cornyn responded in such a way. The guy is an imperious bastard. He can’t be gone soon enough.

Here’s a question: Where does Wesley Hunt figure in all this? He made the primary go on another 12 weeks with a lot of money wasted. Mighta made Cornyn a conservative for those 12 weeks but everyone knew he wouldn’t win. He probably has higher aspirations but we didn’t need this distraction.

Scott Pressler had done more positive work in the time he’s been organizing, than John Cornyn ever did in all the years he’s been in Congress.

**Scott Presler really needs a haircut!**

You are of course aware of how ugly he is. With the long hair people don’t notice. The good news for us straight guys-he’s gay.

Cornyn should know grifting since he’s good at it.

It’s been good. Think Tillis, Ernst, Cornyn and the turtle.

Let’s go back a few years and see who’s gone:Corker/Flake/Mittens/Portman/Toomey

Let’s go back even further: Lugar/Bennett(UT). There are more. What happened to Chuck Hagel?

Cornyn acts like a pissy little sixth grade girl.

Thank you my friends. Looks like we’re getting our house in order. That’s good. Only then can we take on our enemies.
