Sen. Mitch McConnell 'looks and fights like a TURTLE'

[h=1]Sen. Mitch McConnell 'looks and fights like a TURTLE' says Texas U.S. Senate candidate, blasting his opponent for working with the minority leader[/h]

• The latest wacky U.S. campaign ad comes from a Dwayne Stovall, a Texas tea partier who claims Sen. John Cornyn, the incumbent, is too moderate
• The evidence: Cornyn's alleged closeness to Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, the Senate Republican that tea partiers most love to hate
• An insider-the-Beltway Internet meme compares photos of McConnell with pictures of turtles
• Cornyn faces a crowded field of GOP primary challengers, including Stovall and Rep. Steve Stockman
• If he can capture 50 per cent of the primary votes, he'll avoid a Republican runoff and leapfrog straight to the November general election

Dwayne Stovall wants Texans to know that U.S. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell 'looks and fights like a turtle,' and he hopes that image will bleed over to Republican Sen. John Cornyn – the man whose job he wants.
'We Texans don't need a Beltway turtle telling us how to fight,' Stovall says in his newest video ad.

The slight is related to what Stovall sees as a lack of action from Cornyn, the state's senior senator and the Senate Minority Whip, to block elements of the Affordable Care Act.
Ted Cruz, the junior senator, won national attention in September for monopolizing the Senate floor for 21 hours in a quasi-filibuster aimed at forcing changes to the Obamacare law as a condition of avoiding a government shutdown.

Texas is embarrassing.

Only in Whacko Bizzaroland, which evidently Texas is(How else can one exclaim Nutcase Cruz), can the 2nd most conservative Senator in the Senate, John Cornyn, be considered "moderate". http://blog.chron.com/txpotomac/201...-most-conservative-senator-in-2012/#4209101=0

Early voting for the March Primary Election began today with Texas’ voter ID law enjoying full enforcement, despite U.S. Department of Justice objections in federal court. Just as Texans experienced in the 2013 Constitutional Election, voters must present an approved photo ID to cast a regular ballot at their polling place.
