Conservative Sen. Ted Cruz is endorsing Louisiana Republican congressional candidate Zach Dasher, adding to the candidate's roster of high-wattage support.

"Zach Dasher is a conservative with a backbone to stand up to career politicians in both parties, to help lead the fight to repeal Obamacare, to stop amnesty, to defend our conservative values," Cruz, a Texas Republican, says in a video endorsement of Dasher released Wednesday.

The Louisiana businessman is among a field of candidates running against scandal-scarred Republican Rep. Vance McAllister for a spot in the race's December runoff.

McAllister, whose political ambitions took a pounding when he was caught on tape kissing a married staffer, won a special runoff last year to fill the seat but is struggling for support in his current campaign.

McAllister is terrible. He is even trying to walk back his support for amnesty.
