Noriega vs. Cornyn aka Small vs. Big Money


After reading an article from Austin American Statesman titled, "Noriega Promotes Military Past in Texas Senate Race", I learned more about the Texas Senate candidates.
Behind the national elections, are our state elections. It is hard to say which is more important but one thing is for sure… John Cornyn will not change anything if, and probably when, he is reelected for Senate. He has a long past with President Bush and has voted with him more that 90% of the time. Cornyn has spent about $9.4 million dollars.
This article is important because it outlays some of Senate candidate Rick Noriega’s choices and opinions. He has the liberal idea to end the war in Iraq which goes against Cornyn’s beliefs. This is just one of the issues the two candidates differ in.
Although Cornyn is pretty far in the lead, Noriega hopes that undecided voters will take more interest.  Also this time around, Bush cannot help Cornyn like in 2002.
I urge my friends, which I found very difficult, and family to pay attention and vote. A majority of my friends aren’t even registered to vote; they are plain stupid people. Noriega could have a better chance if more people listened.
