Not meaning to open a can of worms, but here’s the funny thing about your statement as it concerns the Texas Republican Senate primary:
1)Dewhurst is not, and has never been, a lawyer.
2)Cruz is, and has never been anything but, a lawyer.
:-)
Mind you Dewhurst is not “my guy”. Everyone here who labels him an “establishment Republican” is correct. It’s not that I doubt that Dewhurst is in the Establishment camp; it’s that I doubt that Cruz will remain OUTSIDE of the Establishment camp for very long at all. My guess is the Tea Party will become disappointed with his actual behavior in the Senate, same as we are with Cornyn (and with KBH, in spades).
One more thing: the so-called “RINO Establishment” in Texas (i.e. Dewhurst’s running buddies) is pro-oil, pro-land, pro-ag, pro-business. To be sure they are corrupted by wealth, and manipulate government to serve their interests rather than the “little guy”, but give me THAT “establishment” ANY DAY over the pro-environment, pro-gay, pro-labor “rino establishment” you find in Yankee country!
David, is that you? Your veiled support of him, NT, is not hard to detect.
Cruz is a constitional conservative who will never be part of the GOP-E. You haven’t done your homework.

LOL.
One thing most not well acquainted with Texas politics do not have a good feel for is that we just came from 100 years of truly swarmy Yeller Dog Dem control of the state and ANY Republican, even a RINO is night and day better than from where we came.
There is nothing wrong will still wanting better, let's hope Cruz wins today!
