I love Ted Cruz. My only fear is that he is not going to be able to raise the money to compete. Usually the big money donors want a moderate like Jeb or Mitt. Time will tell.
Big money Texans are watching to see if Jeb is going to step in (the vaunted Bush dynasty loyalty requirement). The two actual Texans are Cruz and Perry and they’re going to go after that money too.
With 2015 right around the corner maybe things will start to take shape.
