It's funny how people's perceptions change.
I lived in Texas most of my life. We always have two Republican Senators, a good one and a bad one.
Kaye Bailey Hutchison was the good Senator but then she became the bad senator and John Cornyn was the good Senator.
Now John Cornyn is the bad Senator and Ted Cruz is the good senator.
Weird, ain't it.
@Emjay I contacted Hutchison, Cornyn, and Pete Olsen (our rep) after my displeasure with the Kelo decision.
Cornyn didn't reply, he just started e-mailing me his news letter, which has since stopped.
Olsen replied with the usual, thanks for contacting us and being involved, but no real response. (he replaced Tom DeLay). after that, My home phone would have messages on it from him now and then, "Sorry we missed you for the phone-in town hall", which has since stopped, also.
Hutchison was the only one that came back with an answer, that she was as dismayed about it as I was, and hoped that they could rectify future issue like that without bad Supreme Court rulings.
She didn't keep contacting me, but I think she had already made up her mind about leaving the Senate.
