Stockman claims Cornyn “loves Obamacare” but the senator disagrees
WASHINGTON Rep. Steve Stockman hopes to convince GOP voters that Sen. John Cornyn loves Obamacare, and today he launched a website devoted to that line of attack.
Cornyn voted twice to fund Obamacare. If 1.6 million Republican primary voters learn that, he wont be returning to the Senate, Stockman who was in Egypt Sunday and whose location Monday was unclear said in a statement issued by his campaign. A vote for John Cornyn is a vote to fund Obamacare.
Its an allegation that would rile any self-respecting conservative who believes it but a tough sell for anyone whos paid attention to Cornyns record on the topic.
He opposed the law when Democrats pushed it through Congress. As deputy Republican leader in the Senate, hes fought to defund it and to undermine it in numerous ways. But he did not embrace the idea of shutting down the federal government over demands that Democrats abandon their signature health care law, unlike tea party Sen. Ted Cruz, whose popularity Stockman hopes to tap.
