Iowa based conservative talk radio host Steve Deace announced on his radio program today that he is endorsing Senator Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) 96% for the Republican Presidential nomination.
“He’s what we’ve been waiting for: an end to the false choice between our principles and electability,” Deace said of Cruz in his endorsement.
He has proven courage of conviction, a commitment to our principles, but he’s also raised the resources and put the sort of national campaign together on the ground that it takes to actually defeat the GOP establishment for the nomination. He is ready to run a national campaign. And we believe this makes him our best chance to offer the American people a real choice and not an echo for a change.
“Steve Deace is unwavering in his commitment to conservative principles,” Senator Cruz said in a statement released by his campaign. “He is a truth-teller, a courageous conservative, and a powerful voice for liberty. I am thrilled to have his support and look forward to him helping us reach millions of Americans.”

This is fairly big in Iowa amongst conservatives. That being said, Deace endorsed the Huckster back in 2008.
Is it?
What led to Deace's departure from WHO radio? Was he fired?
I wonder if the average swing voter (well, the one who knows who Deace is) considers him a far-right kook.
