How the hell is Cornyn a RINO

You guys crack me up 

[CardinalBacker]

The sad thing is that the OP isn’t wrong. 
 

The Republican Party itself in Texas is cannibalizing itself.  The ultra right wing is destroying everything in its path. It doesn’t matter if you’re a crook like Paxton. Just toe the line of the right wing but jobs and you’ll win the primary.

I don't know I believe that Paxton would win.

I am no Cornyn fan but he has a strong following, especially in the wealthy circles. 

I don't really want Cornyn but not sure I want Paxton either.

I sure hope this holds!  But, I'm not as well educated as laptop and backer.

He supports stricter gun laws which is usually claimed as a RINO move.

It could hold up. It is hard to beat an incumbent though.

In I think the 2010 Texas gubernatorial election, a lot of people wanted RINO (claimed) Rick Perry out.

A very popular US Senator Kay Bailey Hutchinson from Texas announced that she was running for governor in the Republican primary. One poll showed her up 56% to around 30% for Perry.

Hutchison had high profile endorsements like GHW Bush, Nolan Ryan, Roger Staubach, former Secretary of State James Baker and so on.

A year later in the primary she lost to Perry by I think 21 points. This guaranteed new governor got blown out of the water.

Who knows, Paxton might actually crush Cornyn. Counting your chickens before they hatch is not always a good indicator of outcome.

Most people probably would but the only people who can do it are the ones holding the position.

Nope, sadly.

Gee, I don’t know. Was he bribed? Bring back Rick Perry. They named a gun after him. I should have bought one.

[tvc184]

Remember…. KBH as a sitting and popular US Senator was up 26% at this point with big name backers and then lost by 21%.

Cornyn trounced by Paxton in another poll.  The survey conducted by a super PAC backing Ken Paxton shows the Texas attorney general up by nearly 20 points.

Excellent!  Let's work to make this happen!

Been saying that for years, our problem isn’t candidates many times, it’s folks voting for them.

Paxton!!

What you posted says nothing about trouncing Cornyn (not made by you) and the article that you posted was there site’s believe in a win and but the poll numbers.

I remember on election night in 2024 the NY Times kept an updated likelihood of who was going to win. Later in the night as the swing states started coming in, the “likelihood” of a Harris win kept going down. It wasn’t the point spread but the odds of winning.

I don’t doubt that Paxton has a better chance of winning. The latest poll that I saw from 3 weeks ago had Paxton at 29% and Cornyn and Hunt both having 25%.  If anything neat that holds, there will be a runoff.

I have seen no poll showing Paxton with 50% in the last several months.

So a company thinks that there is a 2/3 chance that Paxton holds onto his lead. Probably.

However, Paxton’s biggest challenge might be if Hunt edges by Cornyn and sets up a Paxton and Hunt runoff.

Psrt of Paxton’s negatives certainly come from the perception of his legal dealings, accusations of corruption including bribery, impeachment and divorce. In fact that is probably keeping Cornyn close. Paxton likely isn’t seen as favorable as much as Cornyn being a bigger negative.

Hunt could potentially upset the applecart if he can gain some late traction. Paxton and Cornyn are probably seen like Hillary Clinton vs Trump in 2020. Both were unpopular but who was seen with the least amount of negatives. If it comes down to Paxton and Hunt, Hunt might be seen as the shing light  

Just points to ponder….
