Politico ^ | March 4, 2014 | JAMES HOHMANN and KATIE GLUECK

Posted on 03/04/2014 7:18:32 PM PST by Innovative

“We wish Senator Cornyn [the] best of luck in November and urge everyone to vote for, volunteer for and support the whole Texas GOP ticket,” Stockman tweeted just after The Associated Press called the race for Cornyn, with only about 2 percent of precincts reporting.

Not much of a butt whooping.

Certainly not the blow out the GOP-E and the media have been predicting.

Cornyn still dropping as votes come in.

If Cornyn does win the primary, I'll be voting for a non-liberal 3rd party for that race in the general election.

No.. I'm not. I just believe in facing reality. A 60% win in a primary with three candidates IS a crushing win. Like it or not, and I DON'T.... Cornyn won easily.

So you like liars that vote for amnesty. Obamacare, and removing the borrowing limit, fine. That tells me all I need to know about you.

Agreed. Stockman was a joke. Quite frankly, we need smart people and good leaders. We have none at the moment.

This is disastrous for us.

Cornyn spent millions against weak challengers and is getting less than 60% of the vote.

That Texas couldn't find a second Cruz is troubling.

Cruz ran in an OPEN seat primary. Big difference.

Dewhurst had everything but the incumbency. He was heavily favored by the GOP-E and got the money and endorsements that an incumbent would normally get.

SOS page shows him with 60.9% with just over 1/3 of the precincts reporting. He has been slipping ever since voting started.

If you look at the SOS page, you'll see that early voting is what pushed him over.

Against a shithead like Cornyn, in the GREAT State of Texas... we couldn’t find ANYONE to get closer than 60-20?

It’s a SAD day as far as I’m concerned. There is NO WAY to put lipstick on this pig.
