Cornyn for President!

Wow! In a couple of my last few posts, I mentioned "Cornyn '12". I had no idea that anyone else was echoing my sentiments until I read this (courtesy of the Houston Chronicle):
"[Running for Chairman of the NRSC] has prompted speculation that the senator [Cornyn] may establish a donor base that could position him for an eventual run for president."

This is incredibly exciting! This is just what the Republican Party needs to cure its woes. John Cornyn has the classic combination conservatism. He appeals to BOTH fiscal, and social conservatives (As opposed to McCain, Huck, Giuliani), he has no significant flip flops (Romney...), and sounds very intelligent in media interviews *cough* Palin*cough*.

Go Cornyn '12!

UPDATE: was reading the news and saw this. Popular governors don't go to Iowa right after an election when their candidate lost, without a very good reason. Looks like it is time to add another to the hunt, 4 years before the election...

We Did It!

Well my friends,
We did it! While John McCain lost (no surprise), but all 3 races that I mentioned earlier, Republicans won! Texas Republicans should congratulate themselves. I am too tired to write more now, but I will later.

This is it!

Well my friends,
Today is the day. Election Day. I urge you to go vote, and bring 5 friends with you. Some races I am most interested in:

US Senate: I fully support Senator John Cornyn for re-election. He is a strong conservative, and an advocate for our rights. He is pro-life. pro-gun, and supports an "all of the above" energy policy. He votes along my ideology almost all of the time, with one large exception.

Congressional District 22: I support Pete Olson, because he is also a strong conservative, running for Tom Delay's old seat against Nick Lamson. He served as chief of staff for John Cornyn.

Congressional District 10: I will always be interested in this race, as this is where I used to live. The DCCC has targeted Rep. McCaul for defeat. I strongly support Rep. McCaul, since he matches my ideology almost perfectly. I don't think he has ever voted "the wrong way".

So, go vote! Vote for John Cornyn! Vote Republican!

Go Vote!

The election is tomorrow. Many people are ready for it to have been over a few eeks ago. Now is the time for one final push! Call your local campaigns, and see if they need any help at the polls, or making calls. But the most important thing to do is vote! If no Republicans come vote, the liberal Democrats win by elimination. So, go vote (straight ticket Republican) and bring at least 5 Republican friends with you to vote. Then make sure that they bring 5 friends, and the movement will be started. Vote Republican!

Fiscal Week

A few months ago, the Cornyn campaign helped kick off a national debate over energy policy with their "Energy Days". Well, they are at it again. This week is Fiscal Week, where Senator John Cornyn has recorded videos on the issue that are available at www.johncornyn.com/news. Many Texans will be guest posting, as well as Gov. Mitt Romney, Grover Norquist, and Congressman Jeb Hensarling. Please help take part in this discussion.

Time to call Texas a Race

According to the most recent poll, John Cornyn has a 15 point lead in the Texas Senate race. 5 months ago, those numbers would not have been insurmountable, but 12 days from the election, there is no way to recover. In my opinion, Rick Noriega might as well concede now, no need to wait. Vote "Big John" Cornyn. Vote Republican.

Political Depression

My dear readers,
I have a confession to make: I am politically depressed. Now, this is not in reference to the state elections, as the Republicans future here still looks bright-ish. John Cornyn is expected to be swept into an easy victory, as well as the party keeping the State House and Senate, and Pete Olson may have a shot at winning District 22. No, I am referring to the national elections, and not just the Presidential Election. It is looking increasingly possible that the Democrats could get a filibuster-proof, 60 vote majority. The Democrats are also expected to pick up seats in the House. Barack Obama is trashing John McCain in the polls, both in the popular vote, and electoral. He is putting traditionally Republican states into play. I have yet to figure out how he does that! And then, in two years, I only have an inner party fight to look forward to. So, I am politically depressed. May God Bless America, despite the party which may be elected to govern.

Cornyn releases new website!

On Monday, the John Cornyn campaign will release their newly redesigned website. This will be in conjunction with the release of several tv ads, that you will be able to view on the website. As a Blogger For Cornyn, I was granted access to the new site, and can assure you that it looks like it will be a much better thought out design from the original. If you have a blog and would like to become a Blogger For Cornyn, and have your blog added to the blogroll, then email: vincent@johncornyn.com with the name of your blog, and its URL.

17 Years Old=Second Class Citizen

Memo to Senators Kay Baily Hutchinson, John Cornyn, Congressman Mike McCaul, and respective staff personnel (as well as all other interested parties):
I am fed up with being a second class citizen because I am not 18! Allow me explain: I must pay taxes, but I cannot vote (taxation without representation); I can earn money, but I can't invest said money; I can buy a book, but I can't sell a book; I can put money in a bank account, but I can't take it out; I can buy a cell phone, but can't get service for it; I am taxed, but I can't voluntarily contribute to a campaign; I could go on and on, but I will stop. And BTW all of this is because of either State or Federal Law. Either don't do things like tax me, or allow me to have the privileges of citizenship as well!

Rick Noriega Flip-Flops on Energy

Well my friends,
After months of saying that we cannot "drill our way out of this problem" of high gas prices by drilling offshore and in ANWR, Rick Noriega has flip-flopped. He has now stated that he IS in favor of drilling offshore, and that he would have to "Take another look" at drilling in ANWR. I guess his problem is just that he can't think of anything better than Cornyn can. Well, unless you count pulling all our military out of Iraq and then drilling there for our oil, which he advocated.

Rick Noriega on Energy

Rick Noriega has just released an ad on Youtube promoting his energy policy. You can watch the video here. What this ad boils down to is, Rick Noriega has NO energy policy. He spends almost the entire video attacking John Cornyn. Just as a note, he finds that he can only spend 38 seconds talking about this extremely important issue. Of course, he says how gas prices have risen $2.64 since John Cornyn took office, but I noticed that he does not mention that $1.72 (65%) of that amount has been in the last two years, coinciding with when Democrats took power. He also says that John Cornyn has opposed alternative energy, which is an outright lie. Rick Noriega opposes drilling in ANWR, opposes nuclear energy, opposes clean coal, opposes increased refineries. He is the one who opposes creative solutions to our energy crisis. You can watch Cornyn's videos on the issue here. I encourage you to watch all of Cornyn's videos. Who do you think will be the most capable to deal with our energy problems, Senator John Cornyn, or State Representative Rick "I can't figure this out" Noriega?

Energy Independance Week

Dear Friend,

Over the course of the next few days, our website is going to engage you and good people across our state who want to know what we can do right now about energy independence, gas prices, and more.

We will hear from experts, listen to folks who don’t necessarily have a PhD but who want common sense to win out over politics. The best ideas don’t frequently come from Washington. And we need good people engaged if we’re going to make a difference now.

I hope you’ll visit our site now by clicking here. And come back frequently for more because it’s going be changing, and growing to include lots of new info.

Now is the time to free our economy from dependence on foreign energy. Come offer ideas and discuss solutions we should be pursuing to bring energy independence to our state and country.

I look forward to your visit. Thank you.

Sincerely,

John Cornyn
U.S. Senator from Texas

News Flash To Loony Left: You Can't Touch Cornyn!

Well my friends,
Just about everyone knows that the Loony Left has been dreaming for years about seeing John Cornyn defeated. A few months ago this looked like it could be remotely possible. However, a poll released on the 9th shows John Cornyn with a 17% lead. So liberals, it looks like one of your worst enemies will be returning to the Senate after all. Just a hint, cut your losses and leave Big John alone.

"Big John" Cornyn Ad

I recently had the pleasure of watching the "Big John" Cornyn ad , which is in my opinion the best campaign ad in recent times. The liberal media and left wing wacko bloggers have been going nuts over this. My question to them is: Why can't you let someone have just one lighthearted video without attacking them for filming it. You can view the video at http://blip.tv/file/990887
Watch the video, then let me know what you think.
