A non-vote for Cornyn is in essence a vote for Alameel.

That dog won't hunt anymore. It's a scare tactic being used along the same lines as calling someone a racist for being anti Obama.

Don't play the race card again. As for your hunting dog analogy, the guy with the most votes wins so maybe you'll reconsider not voting for Cornyn. Plan A is for a candidate to get you to vote for him. Failing that, Plan B is to get you not to vote for his opponent.

In another post you say guns and saving babies aren't enough for you because you want fiscal responsibility also. Well you aren't going to get it with Alameel and he'll also take your guns and kill babies in the process of spending your money.

Chas.

I didn't play a race card. I made a referance to a scare tactic that is often used on people who didn't vote for Obama. I was comparing scare tactics. How you came up with me playing a race card is beyond me.

I guess no one is allowed a dissenting opinion on a candidate around here anymore. I guess we have forgotten how to hold our elected officials accountable for their actions because of what we might get. Maybe if our elected officials were scared of the voters and what they might do things would change.

I have a right to my opinion on Cornyn just like ever other member on this board.

I still don't understand how my statement was deemed throwing a race card when that was not my intention at all.

Really? Lucky for me I get to pick and choose which ballot boxes I check. I guess that makes me irrelevant only on certain candidates. A candidate who is pro gun and pro life doesn't do it for me anymore, they must also be fiscal conservative after all what good is any of this when we are a third world country because we have overspent and over borrowed? That day is eventually going to get here.

We sure won't get there by allowing the Cornyn's of the world to go down to defeat because of ideological purity standards. The only chance we have of saving this nation is to get more Senators like Cruz and Cornyn. Even then it's a shaky proposition.

Cruz and Cornyn are worlds apart as far as conservatives go. I think Cruz would be embarrassed to be lumped in with the likes of Cornyn. You may be fine with Senators who barely meet the minimum qualification as conservative while I have higher expectations for those that want my vote. John Cornyn has proven that he no longer deserves my vote. I want better for my country and state than Cornyn has to offer. Like I said, those who want to run will have to earn my vote by their actions not their words.

I forsee the Cornyn campaign having a few sleepless nights...

I voted against Cornyn and he will have to win without my vote.

Cornyn will win, but I'm curious if you would prefer Alameel as a Senator.

Chas.

I don't want either man. If a man can't stick by the principles he campaigns on then he doesn't deserve my vote. My vote is worth something and it won't be cast anymore for the lesser of two evils. Cornyn is not very far removed from McCain and I consider them the be two peas in a pod.

Depending on the organization Cornyn is denoted as the most conservative or top 10 conservative Senators serving. Not sure what "promise" you're surmising he hasn't kept.

Here is just one article that explores some of Cornyn's "conservative" voting record in Fiscal matters.
