And while Cornyn won, he had to spend $6million to do it.

And as a sitting Senator he did not even hit 60%

Hope you’re not reading too much into this. You are talking about Cornyn. Reportedly he had amassed a huge war chest in excess of $13M.

He knows he’s safe for 6 more years and I don’t expect him to deviate from his previous deviousness at all.
I’m sure he’s watching McConnell’s race quite closely and more concentrated on being Senate leader than he is on the needs and wishes of most of those of us in Texas.
