Rick Noriega: A Texan Begs for Help in the US Senate Race


Texans have a bad rep around the country at this moment in history.  Deservedly so I suppose.  It's tough being a Texan.  I frequently read posts and comments that treat us badly, because everyone hates GWB and everyone assumes that people from Texas must be stupid for every electing him... sigh.

Things look bad for Texas. 

Ike was very real. 

There really are a disproportionate number of low-information voters here. 

The MSM in this state is unbelievably bad.  Major political stories are completely absent from the newspapers.

Be all of that as it may, the republican candidate for US Senate is breathtakingly bad.  At the debate a couple of weeks ago, he ran as the "status quo" candidate.   The democratic candidate, Rick Noriega, is taking on this Bush mouthpiece with very little money.  He may have a chance, but he needs money.

Please help.

Here, here.

You don't have to be a Texan to give us a little help down here. We've got to get rid of John Cornyn! The last Rasmussen poll in September had Noriega just 7 points behind, the closest he's been since the spring. The Republicans have a stranglehold on our politics, and we have to break it. George W. ran out Ann Richards with his notorious whisper campaigns, and then Tom Delay rewrote the congressional districts to get other Democrats out of office.

Help!
