So, who is the conservative alternative to Dewhurst in the Lone Star State?

God forbid conservatives sit this one out and let someone like Wendy Davis romp...

Besides political issues, your sister's on solid ground despising Dewhurst on general principals. Check out Dewhurst 's [inebriated?] phone call to Allen, TX police to throw his weight around on behalf of family member who's relationship he can't even explain.
