The GOPe and RATS are aligned against TEA.
They know their ill-gotten wins are transient and will fail as we refine our GOTV. These races will be instructive for the rest of the nation... what to watch out for and counter-vene.
In my County, Cornyn got 67%, IIRC of the vote, but going by the no's on Obamacare and Welfare Reform, and Franchise Tax, I am guessing there was a 5.2 to 7.3% rat crossover. I know Dem's who told me they had voted early, or were going to vote today in the Republican Primary here.
Exit polls from the 2012 Presidential election showed that 6% of registered Republicans voted for Obama and 7% of registered Democrats voted for Romney. There will always be the pro-choice RINOs and the “Reagan Democrat” conservative DINOs.
Congressional job approval currently averages 13 percent, the lowest in nearly four decades. And yet, 90 percent of House Members and 91 percent of Senators who sought re-election won in November, 2012.
Americans tend to hate the institution of Congress but they like their individual senators and representatives.
