I agree with your assessment of Cornyn. He isn't dripping with charisma, and unfortunately too many people base their vote on the more flashy, attractive candidate. Also, didn't he attend some sort of Muslim rally in Texas Stadium recently? Not sure that was such a smooth move given the current political climate. Hopefully W's efforts on his behalf will rub off. I read several weeks ago that Karen Hughes will be staying on top of this campaign when she returns to Austin. Maybe that will help (praying, praying).

Gosh, I didn't hear about Cornyn going to a pro Muslim rally. Must have been pretty low key. I agree he kinda blends into the background but I have read some of the decisions he has made as Attorney General and some of them have really pissed off the liberals so he's o.k. in my book.

Well, I didn't hear about Coryn and the Muslim rally ... that would have been a big mistake if he did it.

However, the Austin American has been running some stories about Muslim connections with Kirk (he employs a guy with some sort of terrorist connections and he got contributions from questionable groups.)

Kirk was the one who was written up in the Austin American statesman newspaper ( it was found somewhere on free republic) in that he got contributions or that one of his staff had ties to terrorists. Here I go, trying to be informative but instead I am probably spreading bad rumors. However, something about terrorists and donations.Kirk is mayor of Dallas and he appears to be popular. Hope he doesn't win.
