Last week two separate polls (Rasmussen and Research 2000) came out showing Democrat Rick Noriega just four points behind incumbent Republican US Senator John Cornyn. There are reasons to suspect those numbers, but the Noriega campaign proudly trumpeted both polls. Hey, a closer-than-expected race could convince on-the-fence donors to give.

But a "real race" helps Cornyn drum up the cash, too. Tonight, his finance director sent out the following message:

We don't put much validity in either poll, but Democrats certainly are. Liberal bloggers and Democrat partisans alike have pounced on the results, claiming they spell doom for Senator Cornyn this fall.

The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, lead by liberal New York Senator Chuck Schumer, proclaimed in an email that the polls show "John Cornyn in serious trouble..."

Ultra-liberal blogger Daily Kos, who commissioned and paid for the second poll, called the results "nothing short of remarkable," and claimed they "hint that this may be a top-tier race before long..."

No one can deny that our opponent and his allies are in desperate need of anything to help them raise resources and give national Democrats reason to invest untold millions into the race, and we must stop them.

Please contribute $10, $25 or $50 to help debunk the myths our opponent and his liberal allies are trying to tell about Senator Cornyn.

The facts are clear, the extreme left is energized and unscrupulous, and our opponent is shamelessly aligned with them and will say and do anything it takes to gain much needed relevance and resources.
