The opposition just was not strong. Cruz stayed out of it
Cornyn saw some new and strange sights, a realm pushback, I imagine. He’s got to have ca ton of dough, too. Mitt- like, proportionally speaking
Ads with dreamy, ‘I love you Texas and america!’ ‘I am so conservative it should curl your hair just thinking about it!’
He touted conservatism like crazy. That’s something.
I think some RINO’s in the house could be targeted if the survive a primary.
Like Jim Kolbe eventually leaving congress. Gabby Giffords had a terrible voting record but at the same time you had the 3 or 4 Republicans become more conservative.
Right now the 4 out of 9 House Republicans in Arizona are pretty good and opposed Kyl, Flake and McCain pushing amnesty.
It would be worse if you had 6 of them and their seats stayed permanent RINO.
I’m not surprised. I’ve said all along it’s obvious the gopE knows something. They’re not just unafraid of the Tea Party. They rub crap in the Tea Party’s face and smile while they’re doing it. They’re not worried about losing.

Ahh...tell that to the RINO David Dewhurst (Incumbent Texas Lieutenant Governor) who is in the process of being forced into a runoff against a Tea Party challenger. Dewhurst HATES run-offs (he lost his last run-off to Ted Cruz) and will have even more reason to hate them after this year’s runoff.
The competition just isn’t there.
Cruz put his energy into other races in this primary, thinking long term. He showed up cornyn last month in the debt ceiling vote
Cornyn’s sleazy doing
There are others in the wings, getting into the smaller races for now. GOPe is fading They lose, they’re giving away our kids’ future, they are on their way out. It cannot happen overnight not with incumbents
The governors race is coming up Abbot needs to hold onto that
Cornyn will hold this seat to the dem opponent, don’t know about his primary challengers on that. Cornyn is a GOPe er but he’s not one of the kick line group. It’s not all bad.
He knows its not a great victory. His opponents were weak and they get 40%
Do they vote for majority Leader or is it heired to the longest standing Majority Senator?
Heard somewhere that Cornyn would be it of Mitch falls.
Not as nearly as stupid as kalifornicate voters.
Cornyn was the only one that ran an ad. Stockman did his part to muddy the water for Cornyn.
Actually, Cornyn may NOT hold his seat, if Kesha Rogers is his opponent.

Do tell. What’s the deal there?
Plenty of stupidity throughout the country. Austin=San Francisco=Boulder=Madison and so on. Lot of good people everywhere, but not enough to cover.
