I know that I have been gone for a long time now, but I felt it important to stress something.

Some people have been noting the relatively close polls between Rick Noriega and Senator John Cornyn here lately. The newest Rasmussen poll has Senator Cornyn leading Noriega by 15 points...hardly all that close.

Republican Senator from Texas John Cornyn has opened a fifteen point lead over challenger Rick Noriega in his bid for re-election. The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey in the state finds the incumbent leading 55% to 40%.

The latest poll is good news for Cornyn, who watched his lead slip to seven in September after leading by double digits in all previous polls since May. The senator is seeking his second term.
