Early Voting began a week ago Monday here in Texas, and ends this Friday, February 28th. Many of us have worked hard to defeat John Cornyn in the March 4th Primary, or at least get him into a Run-Off Election and possibly "Cruz" him out of the Senate. We started out with a lot of expectation and enthusiasm; of which both seem to be dwindling somewhat. Why is that? Probably because only one candidate, seemingly, is even serious about defeating Cornyn. And it is NOT Mr. Stockman.
Since he is my Congressman, I called his Congressional Office in my town yesterday to see how the campaign is going (since we never hear a peep out of him except via an occasional e-mail) and to just get an update and possibly some "encouraging" news. The lady said: "Oh, we're the Congressional Office; we know nothing about his campaign." I'm thinking: Hmmmmmm.... Then she said: "Let me give you his campaign office number." I took the number and thanked her. I then called what is apparently his ONLY campaign office in the entire State of Texas, located in Houston. I got a recording telling me to leave my name and number and they would get back with me. That was two (2) days ago and I have not heard a word from them. That is the first time since I've been politically active in 1980, that I have ever gotten a recording at the HQ of a State-wide Campaign Office in the middle of the day. Does he have only one person in the office?
I've made no secret about the fact that I am NOT supporting my two-time Congressman, Steve Stockman, for the U.S. Senate because he is just freakin' weird. Now, I'm convinced that he doesn't even want to win the Senate Race. He just wanted to raise over $450,000 this time around, to pay off his campaign debts from the 2012 Congressional Election. What suckers we've been.
By the way, that candidate who seems to be the only one even trying to win against Cornyn is Dwayne Stovall. But, I'm afraid all the Stockman lovers have already voted and it might be too late for Stovall to come in second place. I would love to see him and Cornyn in the Run-Off. I think Stovall will win. And, the Cornyn folks who are holding all that "dirt" on Stockman for the Run-Off Election, will be terribly disappointed.
Wow. The replies to the e-mail that I sent out (See my Post #36) are staggering. Most people either said they did not plan on voting or were going to vote for Cornyn out of ignorance. Everyone who has replied says they WILL vote for Stovall.
Come on FReepers.... Hit your e-mail, Facebook and Twitter accounts. WE CAN DO THIS!!! Let’s put Stovall in the Run-Off. HECK YEAH!
>> “Let’s put Stovall in the Run-Off.” <<

Hell yes, let’s make the election irrelevent!

Din Maker is obviously a Cornyn strategist.
Ya have to give him credit...
What the hell are you talking about?
Apparently you are a Stockman supporter. Where is your boy, Stevie hiding out? Why has no one seen him on the Campaign Trail, or anywhere else? How come his one, and only, campaign office does not answer the phone and does not return calls? Oh, I know.... they’ve all taken the $450,000 campaign cash he has received since jumping into the Senate race, and are on an important Congressional trip overseas. If he makes the run-off, I’ll vote for him because I loathe Cornyn, but he will get his clock cleaned. Talk about making the election irrelevant; let Stockman be in the run-off and wait until Cornyn releases all the dirt he has been holding onto. Any of the other 6 Challengers could win a run-off with Cornhole, but not Stockman. BTW, you’re a freakin’ idiot.
Wow! RINO vs RINO, What excitement.
Thanks. I’ll give Miller and Christian an extra hard look (already decided on Watts). I guess I better get in gear and make my final decisions this weekend.
(BTW, I really like your FR moniker! I just read an article about JL in my electric co magazine.)
Not really, I think. We had an exchange of thoughts and I think we are on the same page. I just wanted to know more specifically about why.
