With voters in the winner-take-all state of Arizona set to vote next Tuesday, presidential candidate U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) picked up a big endorsement out of the Grand Canyon State.
U.S. Rep. David Schweikert, a fellow Republican, represents Arizona's Sixth Congressional District and was first elected to Congress. He is a recognized reform leader in Washington, D.C.
"My top priority in Congress has always been to do what the Washington insiders simply refuse to do, and that is to reduce the size and cost of government and save our nation from the crushing debt that the Washington politicians have placed on the backs of each and every citizen of our nation," he said. "Throughout the never-ending battles to do this, Ted Cruz has always been a principled leader fighting to do the very same thing. With a federal debt that is quickly approaching an unfathomable $20 trillion, our country's future economic growth and prosperity are in grave danger unless we elect a principled conservative who is truly committed to stopping the out of control spending and borrowing that has led us to where we are today.
"It's clear that Ted is the conservative leader that we need as our next president, and my wife, Joyce, and I are proud to give him our strongest endorsement. In the upcoming Arizona presidential preference primary, Ted is the clear choice for voters who want a conservative president who is truly committed to fixing the mess in Washington."
Cruz said he was "thrilled" to have Schweikert's endorsement. He said called the congressman a "passionate fighter for liberty" who has been fighting what he has termed the Washington Cartel.
"He has worked to rein in Obama's lawlessness, repeal Obamacare and stop the president's illegal executive amnesty," he said. "David is a strong addition to our team and I am thankful for his leadership fighting on issues that are most important to conservatives."
Today Trump is going after Hillary.
The “True Conservative” is being endorsed by Lindsay Graham, and hiring Bushtards, and hoping a scam by the GopE will win him what he couldn’t on his own.
At least not one where there was a principled conservative was battling both the establishment and a populist reality tv star!
I daresay "they" don't remember the 1979/1980 fight to get Reagan as our primary candidate.
Many here remember Reagan, even remember him during his first term but really don't remember the real political battle against establishment figures behind Geo. H.W. Bush!
Talk about street fighting and shadowy, behind the scenes smears, not to mention sneers at Reagan!
Yeah, Schweickert is my Congressman and one of the (relatively) good guys. It makes sense he would endorse Cruz over the others.
Except when Trump gets one, right?
What?
Excellent endorsement. When I hear of such conservatives I want to move to their districts! Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work.
‘Using MRI machines, researchers at the University College London found that “feelings of love lead to a suppression of activity in the areas of the brain controlling critical thought. It seems that once we get close to a person, the brain decides the need to assess their character and personality is reduced.”’

Yes, it costs money to fight. Not everyone’s candidate is a billionaire.
As long as the dough flows, fight on.
Like I said if nothing else it’s good experience for next time.
Who is Dan Quayle of AZ backing?
CHRISTIAN CONSERVATIVES
DO NOT BE DECEIVED BY MEDIA MACHINATIONS
Thousands including many Catholics thought they were responding via Trump in effect telling the pope to go to hell . But it was intended and used, as a left handed Trump endorsement. which the media not Trump engineered and after learning the facts should have condemed this, instead used it.. Pope Francis responded to accusation loaded questions by a Reuters news agency reporter and did not believe those accusations. So the pope never mentioned Trumps name . Here in abstract; replied using the term One, to generalize his example and began with; If actually one said and continued with : One does, one did, one believes :It was meant to be a generalized position applied to anyone when answering the questions that were presented to him .Yet the US media turned this statement vy Pope Francis : Those that only focus on building walls and not bridges are not Christian. into: Those who build walls not bridges like Trump are not Christian. Turning a generalized position into a personal attack by no less the pope If they voted that way because of that reason They were mislead by machinations of the media not rejection of actions voters thought were made by the pope.
MSM ignored the constititionalist Cruz who says illegals are out and are to never return position but knowingly used the bombastic Trump who has a round trip ticket position about amnesty and silence from Trump about any border wall fence funding discussion going on during the GWB administration. Where the democrats killed the funding. Perhaps he was too busy managing his Trump U. Fleecing trusting souls who are now engaged in suing him for misrepresentation.
THIS PRIMARY DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE GIVE TED CRUZ YOUR VOTE
THE ONLY CANDIDATE COURAGIOUS ENOUGH TO BATTLE AGAINST WHAT AMMOUNTS TO A WAR ON RELIGION ...
The leftist medias anti religious agenda is now busy minimizing the Cruz candidacy claiming Cruz can not win by emphasizing Christian values in: Marriage, planned parenthood, abortion and the citing of positions on these subjects taken by Trump. Urge Ted to stay the course and defeat this blowhard . We want back to the days of the constitution and the government out of our bedrooms, kitchens, gas tanks, back yards, as well as our religions. Who will pick justices that keep it that way .
During a Face the Nation interview, Sen. Ted Cruz declared he would not accept the Scalia vacancy. That is not a job I am interested in. Cruz added, The job I am interested in is appointing 3, 4, 5 Supreme Court justices, defending the constitution. Ted Ctuz vowed that as president he would reverse the damages one by Barack Obama to the constitution.;
WE NEED TED CRUZ
We've seen plenty of 'em...That's how we know how they operate...That was the reason for the post...
And absolutely nothing tops that...
It makes him a Conservative!
WE NEED TED CRUZ

Said Hillary and the GoPe.
You’re known by your associations, Cruz teaming up with Bushs’, Grahams’, and rest of GoPe.
Not only is he done this election, but he’s now burning all bridges to his base, conservative voters.
What is more important then that?
To me that's the most important issue.
Trump's touchback amnesty and maybe a citizenship amnesty is the worst for US sovereignty.
