Compromise or surrender? All I hear from the Cornyn brigade is surrender. No leadership.

It is largely Cornyn's doing that the GOP has not been in the Senate majority these past several years. His reign as NRSC chairman was a disaster.
John Cornyn claims to be the 2nd most conservative member of the Senate.

Yet, as Chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, he
hand-selected these "Republican" candidates:
  • Arlen Specter - Democrat
  • Charlie Crist - Democrat
  • Lincoln Chafee - Democrat
  • Lisa Murkowski - Independent

Also, when he had a chance to stop ObamaCare by supporting Ted Cruz' filibuster

he FAILED

and hid behind a meaningless vote later.

He pulled the same trick on the Senate amnesty bill
and again on raising the debt limit.

No one has done more to offer up quisling candidates or to dispirit the base.

Cornyn will have to win without my vote in November if he wants the job.

I don't vote for liberals that support Reid's liberal agenda with critical cloture votes.

Cornyn is a placeholder for the next Cruz.

Pale pastels is what lost the Presidency in 2012. We have to draw a very sharp contrast in 2016.

I don ‘t know about you, but I am impatient with those Republicans who after the last election rushed into print saying, “We must broaden the base of our party”–when what they meant was to fuzz up and blur even more the differences between ourselves and our opponents.

It was a feeling that there was not a sufficient difference now between the parties that kept a majority of the voters away from the polls. When have we ever advocated a closed-door policy? Who has ever been barred from participating?

Our people look for a cause to believe in. Is it a third party we need, or is it a new and revitalized second party, raising a banner of no pale pastels, but bold colors which make it unmistakably clear where we stand on all of the issues troubling the people?

Let us show that we stand for fiscal integrity and sound money and above all for an end to deficit spending, with ultimate retirement of the national debt.- CPAC 1975

Cornyn recently said "that his party will have to prove it can compromise and govern, or forfeit its chances of winning the White House in 2016."

Corny, you have it 100% bass ackwards.

It’s really simple to Senator Cruz “Conservative” is a descriptive word with real meaning, to senator cornyn it’s an obligatory campaign slogan.

Sen Cornball does not understand there is no compromise with liberals, it is their way or the highway.

All their intentions are nothing but evil, Sen Cornballs solution is to join them rather than beat them.

I’m always reminded when considering this election, sometimes I think it’s a sin, when I feel like I’m winning but I’m losing again...Gordon Lightfoot!
