Please make it so....please!!!

[mrsmith]

Those crony “moderate Republican” PACs are gonna be broke before the election at the rate conservatives are challenging their RINOs!

Here’s my vote for Stockman!!

[RitaOK]

HALLELUYAH! Stockman has some weight and can raise big money. This is VERY good news.

[RitaOK]

Okay, I can’t seem to spell any longer.

[Birdlady]

Absolutely Stockman...good, conservative man!

[Mortrey]

I think Stockman is also one who questions Benghazi Barry’s hidden background.

Wish I lived in Texas—he’d get my vote.

[Theodore R.]

I will certainly be with Stockman, but I think Texans are too corny to reject Cornball.

[Theodore R.]

Does this mean that if he loses the primary, he’ll also be out of the house?

Yes, it does; he could have been vulnerable for House reelection, but I don't know that. People in TX believe in Cornball though most don't know his record.

I do. He does.

If this is indeed true, we need to put our money where are mouths are.

I know times are tough, but ten, twenty bucks...whatever y'all can afford to Stockman’s campaign.

Unseating an incumbent is very expensive. Rally round this ol boy, he'll do right by conservative folks.

Vote for Stockman with a $$ check $$.

[Windflier]

Dump Sen. John Cornball (RINO-TX) ping

[TADSLOS]

Ok, let’s roll. Past time to retire Cornyn.

[RitaOK]

On board with you.

Whoever gets his campaign address first, ping the rest.

STOCKMAN FOR SENATE!

[RitaOK]

YYYEEEEEESSS! Broken glass!

[Texas Fossil]

I like Stockman, but I would MUCH rather have Rafael Cruz (Ted Cruz’s father) than anyone. There has been talk of him running. How serious? Not sure.

[Colonel_Flagg]

Paul Ryan didn’t have to give up his seat while running on the national ticket, and Joe Lieberman was reelected to the Senate at the same time he was running with AlGore. Is this a Texas law?
