The big Texas vote is in 10 days. David Dewhurst, the Establishment choice, is a dud. I hope that Texas conservatives have plenty of yard signs and bumper magnets with Cruz’s name on them.
Most obviously a talking point for Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity on Monday.
what do the polls look like?
I’m not anywhere near Texas but Ted Cruz has been endorsed by Sarah Palin, Jim DeMint, and other people I respect. Although I can’t vote for him I hope he wins the nomination - and the election.
Nowadays a person campaigning to be elected to the U.S. Senate as a conservative is like someone applying for a position in a whorehouse and promising to remain a virgin.
No one is questioning the person’s integrity going in. It’s just that after getting the position, how do they propose to demonstrate they’re doing a good job?
“Cruz pointed to grassroots support evidenced in his $5.2 million campaign chest created by more than 19,000 contributions. He contrasted that with the 2,500 contributions needed to build Dewhurst a $5.6 million war chest.”
Hmmm appears that 19,000 contributors expect Cruz to represent them, while 2,500 contributors expect Dewhurst to work for them.
We don't need 'more business as usual' in the Senate.
We have that view here in Texas and that is why even though the GOP dominates, it gets nothing done.
Too concerned about being nice to the Democrats.
I’ll vote for Cruz but in the back of my mind I’ll be thinking about the last jurist with solid conservative credentials we sent to Washington. Cornyn wasn’t it?
I hope that you plan to vote for Ted Cruz.
