Cornyn criticizes Limpballs and the newt for Sotomayor remarks

It appears that at least for the moment he is more afraid of the Hispanic voters in Texas than he is of the two little piggies.

We'll see how long that lasts.

Should we start a pool on when he grovels to the mighty pig boy?

2. You got it right. He's not going to anger the Hispanic voters of Texas.
Hispanics don't vote as a solid block in Texas because their interests are diverse and their aren't too many issues to unite behind, but if Cornyn angered them by insulting Sotomayor or calling her a racist, they might just unite as a block to vote against him. He'd lose if that happened. He's stupid, but he's not that stupid, and even if he is he's got people who can explain it to him with crayon graphs.

3. I think Cornyn wants McConnell's job
..and he's smart enough to know this fight has more downside than upside for them.

4. I predict he'll suck up to rush in the end. Heh.
This is my senator. He's dumber than the idiot son. Box of rox.
