The minority whip of the US Senate is at 50% in a "republican" year. This must be scaring the HELL out of those up for reelection in 2016.

Expect several retirement announcements in the next year!

Well, the spread is 21points, which is huge. That's a large percentage of undecideds though. Any thoughts why?

John “Kay Bailout Hutchinson, Jr.” Cornyn is a GOPe, POS!

We Texans should have flushed him down the drain during the primaries (I did my part), but even this POS is “slightly” better than a Democrat!

I wrote “slightly”, because Cornyn will vote against his constituents, if the GOPe hints, asks, demands, or otherwise, directs him! He is as squishy, and spineless as K. Bailout Hutchinson!

Cornyn would probably become the Senate GOP leader if by some miracle McConnell lost, and there wouldn’t be a tangible difference in how Republicans in that chamber acted.

Cronyn won with 54.82% in 2008 and with 55.29% in 2002.
Alameel is the one with the hill to climb to make it competitive.

Well, he’ll probably win, but he won’t do it with my vote.

I won’t vote for cornball, but he will easily win.

We didn’t have a solid conservative opponent in the primaries. Steve Stockton looked positively mental and showed very poor judgement with his trip to Israel in the middle of a campaign. The other guy (Duval?) seemed ok on the issues, but looked like an amateur in how the campaign was run. Cornball on the other hand had some amazing commercials that would have convinced me to vote for him if I was a low information conservative.

A national level office is the big leagues and not a good place to learn the ropes. That is why the down-ballot races are so important. Get conservative candidates into offices where they will learn to campaign and we get to see them put those promises into action. The ones who can win and deliver should be rewarded with a chance at a bigger office.
