I didn't know Dewhurst had agreed to a 3rd debate until earlier today.

I already voted for Cruz.

Wow! Dewhurst is a dullard. He sounds like a typical old tired republican. No wonder Cruz is surging. Hope he wins.

2 votes for Cruz today from my household. There is a beautiful photo of him & his family going to vote on his website/FB page. I think he is one of those people who takes better candid photos than formal ones, (not that that should matter - jus’ sayin’).

I can see November from the Tracy Gee Center (early voting location on Houston’s west side)!

Dewhurst ran his first positive ad here in Austin.

In a 2007 speech, Texas lieutenant governor David Dewhurst said, “I support a guest worker program for those here today illegally.”

Here is a Screen Shot of Dewhurst's speech since he deleted the original from the ltgov website.

Dewhurst sounds like a bumbling fool, a boring man who could easily be convinced that socialism is the way to go, a man who would drone on in the senate with nobody listening.

Cruz looks and sounds like a guy who wants to shake things up.

In case you’re wondering where Ted Cruz stands, he successfully argued before the Supreme Court the case, Global Tech v. SEB, where he represented a U.S. patent holder in a case defining the proper standard of intent for inducement to infringe a patent.

I’ve managed to avoid most of the TV ads, since I watch very little TV. I’ll bet Dewhurst’s negative ads continue too though.

I would guess you are referring to this image:

Ted Cruz was one of the few candidates that I was excited to vote for and hopefully I'll have that chance in November as well.

Cruz just caught Dewhurst in a lie. Dewhurst said he was endorsed by the NRA. Cruz said no you weren’t. Dewhurst had to admit that he misspoke and he was not endorsed by the NRA but the local folks.

I’ve already voted for Cruz.

Texans need to vote for Devine TSC, too. Medina is an R establishment, corrupt, hack.

Dew hurst must have [re[ared for the debate by listening to his commercials.

Screw Dan Patrick, by the way.

Dewhurst's campaign has spent $18.8 million this election cycle, $16.5 million of which he loaned to himself.

Ted Cruz could use all the help he can get down the home stretch for anyone who can donate.

Ted Cruz is endorsed by Sarah Palin, Jim DeMint, Pat Toomey, Rand Paul, Mike Lee, Tom Coburn and Many More

Senator Patrick had a few choice words when Dewhurst killed the TSA Anti-Groping Bill in the regular session in this article:

“Apparently, for political reasons… he came up with this elaborate political play to kill the bill without his fingerprints,” Patrick said, speaking to the drama over the anti-airport pat downs bill that failed yesterday.

When asked about how would affect his relationship with Dewhurst, he paused for a while before answering the question.

“I have to ask myself,” Patrick said, before trailing off again.

After another pause of several seconds — seemingly to consider his words — Patrick said, “We’ve had a good relationship. But someone who will undermine his members and someone who will not stand up to the federal government; you have to ask yourself is that the kind of person that we need in the US Senate.
