Cornyn has one vote. One. In a Senate dominated by Democrats. He picks his battles.
I am strongly of the opinion that the opposition needs to lay low this year, avoid controversial issues and votes, and give the Democrats plenty of rope to hang themselves come November.
I am glad they delayed immigration debate and skipped a debt limit fight that they couldn’t win anyway. It’s much better to keep the spotlight on the Obamacare disaster and scandals like the IRS targeting, and let Obama’s incompetence dominate the news.
But that’s just how I would handle it. I’m a Reasonable, not a Republican, so I will just sit here and hope they don’t blow it.
He battles only conservatives.
He is only one vote in the senate. He was the ONE VOTE that Reid needed to eliminate the debt limit. He came through. For Reid.
