Perry: We don’t need outsiders’ views on Senate race (Are you listening, Sarah Palin?)

"Agreed. Perry's support of Dewhurst is natural and no surprise at all."

Support for continuing as Lt. Gov. is different from support for a Senate Seat.

That’ll work.

If the cheerleader plays the game better than anybody, and I mean anybody, currently on the field? Oh, hell, yes.

Don’t blame Perry for not mincing words on this.

Texas has been well run and Dewhurst has been a good member of the crew responsible.

Nobody has shown me anything so wonderful about this Ted Cruz guy to make me change my vote to him.

And I’ve asked his supporters.

All they do is criticize Dewhurst for being ‘establishment’ or something. Well, it’s been a pretty good establishment if you ask me.

[altura]

Against the tide?

You didn’t read the results? Dewhurst won more votes by far. Hard to get a majority in a 3/4 man race. He’ll win it easily in the runoff.

[RichInOC]

By the way, were I a Perry supporter, I’d be really, really careful about calling anybody stupid. Because your guy’s main contribution to the 2012 campaign was showing why the Aggie joke is Texas’ version of the Polish joke.

No, that isn’t worn out.

Some of us will never forget the vicious ugliness which you and your little band of sniveling idiots put upon Perry.

Don’t bother anyswering. I’ll never reply to you again.

[Paladin2]

"....of the Polish joke."

Who was Alexander Graham Bellski?

[humblegunner]

shut up and watch how Sarah does it.

Yep. And in exchange, Perry could show Palin how to complete a term as Governor.

Several in fact.

"The fact that the Houston Chronicle and the Austin-American Statesman are salivating over the possibility that Lt. Gov. Dewhurst might be upset by Cruz should give you a clue."

Uh, no. The fact that the Houston Chronicle endorsed Dewhurst should give you a clue.

[TexasSecede79366]

You're a Dam' Yankee. You don't understand the nuance behind the joke.
Ricks pissed off at you retards,maybe we can get the f@#k out of your retarded society.

[altura]

Apparently nobody read the story. Perry didn’t attacked anyone and he didn’t mention Sarah’s name or anybody else’s.

But the people supporting Cruz are outsiders and none of them are from states doing as well or better than Texas.

[Paladin2]

"Millions of conservatives across the country have an interest in who Texas sends to the U.S. senate. Just as millions of conservatives across the country have an interest in dumping Corker and Alexander. Give Tennessee a Cruz or Mourdock and we will get the job done. "

Well said. Especially for those of us who are going to have difficult time in replacing Marxist Senators from our own state.

[altura]

Great post.

The entire media in Texas has hated Rick Perry for years and they hate Dewhurst also.

The media just doesn’t like conservatives but they do like a fight ... something to write about.

I still haven’t seen anything about Cruz to make me vote for him over a proven and known conservative.

[TexasSecede79366]

SShh! The Palinbots are really stirred.

[altura]

gunner, it goes against all that is holy, but I gotta agree with you on that one !!!

[Josh Painter]

Perry would have won reelection just fine without Sarah Palin. Guess that's why Perry asked Palin to come to Texas and campaign for him, then.

Thank you,that's the dumbest thing I've heard.
Every time I hear Sara it makes me puke.
