Reagan Posted Tuesday at 05:09 AM Author Report Posted Tuesday at 05:09 AM This is fairly spot on. Like i said before -- Cornyn lost the run-off when he barely won the primary. Usually bad for incumbents when this happens! Quote

The more I learn about Talirico the more creepy it gets! You started this thread almost a year ago. The article that you led off with has one poll showing Paxton up as much as 40% and crushing Cornyn. A day later I said not so fast. It is hard to beat an incumbent. As an example I gave the gubernatorial race between Kay, Bailey Hutchison and Rick Perry. I think she was up about 25 points a year out, was a very popular US senator and had all the big names pushing for her. Perry beat her in the primary. Hutchison went from a 20+% point lead to a loss. A month later, you posted an article that said “Texas sized trouble for Cornyn”as a headlines and Paxton with a double digit lead A month later the article was Cornyn trounced by Paxton. We could go on but I believe the point has been made. All of the double digit leads completely went away and in truth, Cornyn beat Paxton in the primary. It was by only 1% but Paxton’s double digit lead (as much as 40%) evaporated and he edged into second place behind Cornyn. Now apparently, Paxton has already won. Yesterday you posted a poll that showed Cornyn lost support (42% to 41%) from the primary so none of the undecided and all of the votes for Hunt went to Paxton. The article that you posted now has Paxton with a 1% advantage if Cornyn got the Trump endorsement. The rumors are that Trump is about to endorse Cornyn. If that happens, by your article, it shows the race well within the margin of error. So for now, Cornyn has “already lost the run-off”. The bottom line is that nothing that you have posted for a year has been correct. Not only did Paxton not crush Cornyn, he lost to him in the primary. Yes it was by a mere percentage point but that’s a far cry from a 15% to 40% crushing loss by Cornyn. Paxton may very well gain the needed votes to win. I doubt that Cornyn will lose votes as the article you posted suggests however. Oddly, Paxton’s biggest ace in the hole could be the Democrat supporters not wishing to face Cornyn.

I made no prediction nor refuted any of the current polls posted this thread. I only noted that you apparently scour the internet trying to find another person’s comment that agrees with your own. You can post whatever but none of the claimed blowout of Cornyn has happened. Zero….. So yet again you are referring to someone else’s opinion or poll to back up your beliefs. It is having an opinion and then trying to find a comment that backs up your pre-determined beliefs. That’s okay. I will refer back to my comment a year ago that said it is tough to beat an incumbent no matter what the polls say. To date I have been correct…. you haven’t, not even once. Don’t count your chickens before they hatch. It is like a guy who predicts who will be in the Super Bowl and for 20 years has been wrong every time. Then after two decades of failure, his prediction is correct and he says, “See, I told you!!”. My only prediction to date is that it is tough to beat an incumbent. I gave the example of KBH whose early poll showed that she would annihilate Perry. I am fairly certain that anyone reading this thread would agree that Cornyn to date has been a tough opponent. Let me guess, you will again search the internet high and low to find another poll that has nothing to do with this comment. 😎 And for a side note, I voted early and for Paxton. I don’t think he will be the best choice to beat the Democrats. He carries too much baggage. I don’t believe politically slanted polls however. I also believe that the Democrats might come out to support Paxton in order to eliminate Cornyn. Anyone who didn’t vote in the Democrat primary is eligible to vote in the runoff. AggiesAreWe 1 Quote
