Texas Senate Race Makes Top Ten

As Sarah Palin would say, "shout out" to my friend Rick Dunham up there in Washington, D.C. His Texas on the Potomac's list of the ten closest Senate races features the Texas race between John Cornyn and Rick Noriega. The race barely made the list, but it did, so here's the writeup:

10. Texas. Republicans say they aren't in the least worried that freshman John Cornyn could lose. For a long list of reasons, Cornyn should win (Texas remains a Republican state, he's a well-financed incumbent, and his opponent hasn't caught fire). Still, Democrat Rick Noriega was within seven percentage points of Cornyn in the latest Rasmussen poll. Cornyn supporters doubt the poll's validity. But he'd rather be ahead by 17 than 7.

There's too much politics in Texas to fit into a newscast, so the fun continues here.
