Cornyn Dreams of White House; Texas Kids Dream of Health Care

The TDP e-mail today highlights a scary possibility; from today's Houston Chronicle:

Friends and detractors alike describe the San Antonio lawyer as a man of great ambition who might one day run for president or become a nominee for the Supreme Court.

"The sky's the limit," says Cornyn adviser David Beckwith, a GOP operative who once served as press secretary to Vice President Dan Quayle.

Craptastic. I'll let TDP Chair Boyd Richie sum up my thoughts:

“While Senator Cornyn’s presidential ambitions are merely a pipe dream, the reality would be a living nightmare for hard-working Texans,” said Texas Democratic Party Chairman Boyd Richie. “While he is sitting in Washington wishing he were President, here in Texas, one in five children are wishing they had health insurance.

Yet all the more reason to help send Rick Noriega to the Senate!
