I was undecided, Dan Patrick whom I respect, was all in for Dewhurst so I was leaning Dewhurst. Sarah whom I greatly respect convinced me to vote Cruz. Prior to Sarah the race looked like a lesser of two evils race.
Sure. I see what you mean.
Should one vote for tea party conservative Cruz or should one vote for establishment RINO Dewhurst. What a tough choice that must have been. ///s
I was undecided, Dan Patrick whom I respect, was all in for Dewhurst so I was leaning Dewhurst. Sarah whom I greatly respect convinced me to vote Cruz. Prior to Sarah the race looked like a lesser of two evils race.The entire GOPe in Texas, from Governor on down, backed Dewhurst in the 2012 GOP primary for U.S. Senate. It was disappointing but understandable that then TX Senator Dan Patrick fell prey to the GOPe party line and had doubts about Ted Cruz in his first run for elective office.
Since 2012, Dan Patrick has watched Cruz stand strong for conservative principles time after time and keep his promises to voters under the most intense political pressure in Washington, DC.
It's a real testimony to Cruz's integrity that Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick has agreed to be Texas Chairman of the Cruz for President campaign.
