So, cast your votes here-- for who has the better TV campaign ads:    Is it Republican Senator John Cornyn, or his Democratic challenger Rick Noriega?

Ok, have you seen any ads by Noriega?    I think I can count on one hand how many times I've seen one, and I don't even remember what it said.  But I don't have enough fingers and toes to count the number of Cornyn ads I've seen-- just this morning.

Clearly, Cornyn has the cash and Noriega doesn't.   TV ads are not cheap. 

My question is:  How much do you think that will affect the vote?...

I thought Noriega was still in a Panama jail? What's he doing in Texas working for the Democrats?

Rick Noriega, a Lt Colonel in the national guard,served as garrison commanader in afghanistan during operation enduring freedom,as sector cammander securing the texas border,and as the houston incident commander during the katrina hurricane crisis. As a representative in the Texas House, rick has worked for 10 years to make quality health care and college tuition more accessible and afordable.

he wants to increase benifits to service men and women and help texas families reform the immigration system

he was called up for service as a representative in the texas house and went and did his duty

cornyn cant say that
but the reason you see him on tv so much is because he recieved over 400 mill from special interest groups

well i look at who has had the ad that tells me about what they have done and not the bad things about the other. I want to know what the politician plans on doing for the people. All the put down ads on republicans is horrible this year. The one about the judges. I think you need to look at the cases to bad talk the desicisions. I believe law suit abuse is bad and needs to get under control.

rscarab420 your right health care is accessible but NOT AFFORDABLE!!!!!!! But I would pay any amount of money for health care if I AM STILL IN CHARGE OF IT !!!!!!!!Not someone telling me what coverage I get. But us small business owners have to pay for it ourselves if we want it and then, may have to start paying for everyone elses too!!!! Boy that does sound grand dosen't it???????

For Mexican nationals. Thanks Rick.

I express my gratitude to Noriega for his service to his country in Afghanistan, and wonder how such a decent man who fought for freedom could have still joined the Democratic Party.
I liked Cornyn as Texas AG at first. Then he proved himself to be a neocon during the Texas education debate of 1997-98. Now he's just another fake conservative who needs to be fired.

So much political polarization here, don'tcha think? Can't we all play nice and discuss issues without taking cheap shots at the party that is not of our choice? I think we'd be surprised at how much we agree on, when we set aside labels.. Don't you?
