I got those mailings too. They went straight into the recycling bin. Dewhurst thinks all that is necessary is to open his checkbook and send out mail and place ads on TV. Dewhurst has made a habit of not traveling around the state to meet with Republican activists. Cruz has been traveling all over the state meeting multiple times with various groups. I think Cruz's strategy is smarter.
Cruz has tons of out of state money enabling him to run attack ads against Dewhurst all over the state. In fact, I have heard more radio and TV ads this last week from Cruz than from Dewhurst and Leppert combined.
