Kirk fund-raisers have featured former President Bill Clinton and a host of Hollywood stars. Mr. Cornyn has recruited radio commentator Rush Limbaugh and actor Charlton Heston to headline events in Texas to boost his campaign treasury.

Somehow I get the feeling that the Dallas Morning News is blatantly slanting this article to smear Cornyn. From that statement, I think they must be counting "Out-of-State" even when it's held IN Texas. Didn't Charlton Heston raise funds for Cornyn in Dallas or Houston, not out of Texas?? And I KNOW Kirk has GONE out-of-state to New York to get money with Clinton.

Also, don't forget the Texas Senate DEBATE #2 is tonight !!

The Dallas Morning Snooze wants Kirk in the Senate and preach each day on why he must be there. Funny thing is that they get less subtile each time a poll comes out with Ronny behind.

I think the Heston event was in the DFW area but not sure of the location. I think Cornyn held one event at Southfork.
