Rep. John Culberson (R-Texas) has endorsed Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) for president, giving the 2016 contender his first endorsement.
“Ted Cruz is committed to restoring the America we know and love," Culberson said in a statement. "He will restore the true meaning of the 10th Amendment to get the federal government out of our lives, out of our pockets and out of our way. President Ted Cruz will ensure that Texans truly run Texas.”
Cruz's campaign has struggled to get support from his colleagues in Congress. Fellow Texas Sen. John Cornyn (R) said that he would stay neutral in the Republican primary, and even close ally Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) declined to endorse him.

Been told by a few that she won’t run,,,,
But ?
Just in case ..
TED CRUZ - SARAH PALIN 2016
I don't think so. There is plenty of time to announce his opinion. Some people don't like to step in the way of the primary process, unlike true RINOs and establishment types who push the wrong people on us and then work to destroy the intent of the people by perverting the process.

But well worth considering.
Just kicked in $50.00 for our Senator. Plan on doing this every 2 weeks. May not be much, but I haven’t ever done this before.
just remember there is a limit you can donate.

It is time to get the extra conservatives out of the way. And Sarah needs to endorse Ted. They spend time together on stage...

The media is going to try and ignore Cruz hoping he will go away, I hope they’re wrong.
I'm not a republican, I'm a conservative. Screw the liberal (R).
I'll skip on down the page if I have to, because there are downstream conservatives I'll want to support.

Cruz is going around the media, Drudge unfortunately has been an establishment outfit, crystal clear after 2012 that Drudge does not like conservatives. This graphic is just more proof of it. Cruz has the biggest crowds, a massive fundraising wave and the best message, he’ll break through..already is...and its early.
I just caught the tailend of Lee’s interview on Beck’s radio program.
Did I hear correctly Lee was deeply involved in Rubio’s tax plan?
Cruz > Palin
I’m going to see Ted speak Sunday in NH. So why did Drudge leave him out?
“Anyone notice who is missing on Drudge page today??”
No need. He will do it alone.when all the attention is focused on him. Those 6 are competing for the center spot in the debates. Jindal is an interesting choice.
Extremely Extreme Extremist: Mike Lee’s gone RINO?Slyfox, I think you have it exactly right regarding an endorsement from Sen. Mike Lee and how he views the primary process. You can take it to the bank the endorsement will come when the timing is right; likely closely coordinated with the Cruz for President campaign. These two close friends, patriots and Constitutionalists are on the same page philosophically.Slyfox: There is plenty of time to announce his opinion. Some people don't like to step in the way of the primary process, unlike true RINOs and establishment types who push the wrong people on us and then work to destroy the intent of the people by perverting the process.
I note that Ted Cruz recently sent an email out to his supporters encouraging them to read Mike Lee's new book, “Our Lost Constitution: The Willful Subversion of America’s founding document." There is a very good book review posted at Conservative Review that convinced me to get it immediately.
I think the Establishment strategy is to have 20 Republicans on stage. But there will be one debate a month from August through February, and then multiple debates each month, so I'm hoping the field gets culled quickly.
It looks like Ted has enough money already to make it through the early rounds.
Yes, he will stand head-and-shoulders above the competition.
Hmmm...so Ted Cruz is going to be in NH this weekend. Like others here, I was searching for news of Cruz appearing in NH this weekend and not finding anything. It's worth sending an email to Drudge to complain about their choice of candidate photos. I'm doing that now and encourage others to do likewise.
GO TED GO.....................He will be our first Latino
President! ( a little sarcastic fodder for the left, but there is truth to it.).
“Mike Lee’s gone RINO?”
The intended negativity of the label, loses all credibility when tossed around so ridiculously.
I endorse Ted Cruz
