I feel your frustration, because I love Texas, too. But you will have a hard time getting rid of this one since he feels it’s his destiny- anoinTED. You better find a republican whose a dirty fighter with lots of $$$. Or the Enquirer had better score a full testimony from one of the babes.

Not to be a KillJoy but, a Dem hasn’t won a senatorial spot in Texas since 1988 with Lloyd Bentson. And that’s a good thang.

Looks like Dewhurst had Bush & Perry backing and 9 years experienced as Lt. Governor w Perry.

Ted had the TeaParty folks & lots of $$$ form Club for Growth (DIck Armey) -5.5 million in ads blitz. Cruz had Palin, DeMint, Santorum, & crazy BECK campaigning for him in down Texas. (Did Sessions help him, too?)

Dewhurst attacked Cruz as inexperienced and beholden to out-of-state pressure groups and Washington insiders.”....TRUE

and “I’m a lifelong businessman and the only true conservative in the race,”said Dewhurst....IDK, is he a conservative?

You guys should have listened to Mr. Dewhurst- I bet he would have been happy to be ‘just another Texas Senator,’ and served Texas with pride.

“One of Mr. Dewhurst’s supporters, Dr. Gary Brock, a pediatric surgeon in Houston, said that Mr. Cruz was too inexperienced at governing”....TRUE

“The DEMOCRATS tried a CHARISMATIC HARVARD-TRAINED ATTORNEY WITH NO RECORD and it HASN’T WORKED OUT TOO WELL FOR THE COUNTRY,” he said.”

2012: Doctor Gary Brock is a brilliant soothsayer, excepting the charisma part:

Ted duplicated Barry right down to hiding his origins, not matching his mouth to his vote, misrepresenting his wife’s views, running for POTUS-asap, lying about his funding & sources,

targeting small party insider caucus states, cheating the vote-Maine, Kansas, Colorado, Wyoming, & hawking / poaching delegates anywhere and everywhere.

Barry -White:

Just another white barry soetoro haughty harvard law grad 1st time senator globalist-alien non-NBC inexperienced smooth talkin’ delegate poachin’ man.-— w/out CHARISMA

Man, Beautiful_Gracious_Skies, you really covered all the bases on sCruze!
He’s as superficial and crooked as is Obola! As for Tea Party “backing,” The Tea Party has dismal record in satisfactorily vetting candidates they support. Professing to be “A Conservative” and delivering meaningful conservative direction are two completely different issues. And sadly, we also see “religion” injected into their “vetting process.” While being “religious” is certainly a good attribute to have, it doesn’t necessarily qualify you to be a conservative standardbearer. But being honest, until he showed his true colors, I was a big fan of Ted sCruze. If you had asked me six months ago, what the GOP ticket should be, I would have said Trump/Cruz! My bad, and my bad for thinking after 911 that GWB was a “the real deal too.” So at the end of the day, I think we need more “citizen patriots” running for office than continually re-electing people who routinely lie to us as the build up years of “experience” as our elected leaders. I’d favor completely eliminating any retirement benefits to elective public office, together with halving the money we pay them, for openers. Maybe then we’d get people who want to “serve” instead of people who are simply there to “take from sa.”
