Noriega’s Race Is About More Than Money

August 4, 2008 By TXsharon

For me, Rick Noriega’s race is about hope. I hope that he can prove that anybody, even someone without a big purse, can run for office and get elected if you have the best answers.

Read Capitol Annex’s take:
TX SEN: hy Does The Mainstream Media Continue To Believe Money Is All That’s Required To Defeat John Cornyn?

Money isn’t all it takes to win a race. And, Noriega is doing everything right. He’s out there, among the people (although, by and large, the media fails to take notice of this), and he’s talking about a lot of issues, while John Cornyn continues to “one-note” the campaign with “drill here, drill now” arguments.

    Yeah, a “hope”less race. Too bad he’s behind Cornyn in double digit points and 10 to 1 in cash. Noriega might as well go home, or as what most people say in Texas. “Noriega who??”

    You must have a creative poll. They may be saying anything but a box turtle.

    The real loser is Cornyn. What an asshole. He votes with W. 97% of the time despite the fact that 70% of Americans know W. sucks. He votes against any legislation that would help average Texans and he is owned by big oil, big insurance and pharma. The Texas Medical Association realized how awful Cornyn is and it withdrew its endorsement. The box turtle sleeps with crooked lobbyists like Jack Abramoff and Stephen Payne. I suppose Anonymous cannot give his or her real name b/c he/she/it does not want to out him/her/itself for being a total moron.
