Now replacing Cornyn with West is an idea I can get behind. But it just seemed to me that the idea of his coming from Florida into Texas was a little too much like carpet bagging
I’m not exactly sure WHY he moved to Texas from Florida, but I do know he got shafted because the powers-that-be were afraid of him as a congressman and they gerrymandered him out of his seat. He’s been here in Texas a long time so I seriously doubt this would be an issue. He was chairman of the Republican Party in Texas for a time. It’s not like he moved just to run for office like Hillary, or RFK moving to New York to win a Senate seat. Of course, Democrats don’t care about rules now do they? Torricelli anyone?
