My state's shame
I'm really sorry y'all are going to get to know my state's shame, Sen. John Cornyn. He's a douchebag who kicks people when they're down.
So, this is kinda nice,

Cornyn, you'll recall, had just prevented a unanimous consent vote on Hillary's nomination and Thrush, who saw but did not hear the discussion, characterized the exchange as "heated," which Cornyn denied..
Well, one of our eagle-eyed sources spotted the same discussion and was able to get within earshot just in time to hear Clinton warn Cornyn, "The Clintons don't forget." One day later, Cornyn's objections to Clinton's confirmation magically disappeared and the man who had set the roll call vote in motion voted in favor of confirming Clinton.

I think Obama's "post-partisan" style will go a long way. But for the rabid Cornynian types, I guess some times it takes a blunter instrument.
I'll bet Hillary feels an even greater sense of owning her turf since she's had to fight for it, you know.

Actually, Cornyn's worse than a rabid. He's an opportunist who will say whatever and cut whatever deals he has to. Like I said, he's one of those who kicks people when they're down.
It's just nice to see him get whacked a little himself.

Reminds me of Tom DeLay... Now what state was he from again...?

Yeah, sort of.
Delay was a prick, but Cornyn really is a douchebag, if you get the difference.
