And I’d say he’s right since he keeps getting re-elected.

Cornyn was first elected to the senate in 2002 with the Bush wave. The Bush administration provided cover for RINOs like Cornyn for 8 years.

It’s only been 5 years since CNBC’s Rick Santelli on February 19, 2009 referenced the Tea Party in protest against Obama’s mortgage bailout.

Cornyn was last elected before this event (2008) so this is the first election he is facing with Obama (or any Dem) as president and with the Tea Party in his face. It is a much different political world for Cornyn in Texas, where every single Republican candidate is touting conservative ideas.
