Aiding Cruz's quest for campaign cash is a long list of endorsements from national conservative superstars, including former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint, Fox TV host Sean Hannity, former presidential candidate Rick Santorum and former Reagan administration Attorney General Ed Meese.
Like conservative Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Cruz attracts donations because he is a very articulate spokesman for small government and a distinct, consistent ideology, said Jim Granato, director of the University of Houston's Hobby Center for Public Policy.
Dewhurst has a LOT more money, and the backing of the Establishment, but he's going to lose in the coming tsunami of those outraged at mealy-mouthed 'GOP' insiders, all traitors to the conservative cause.
Dewhurst will not lose. He will win easily. He will get most of the votes from the other two guys.
why would you be so easily influenced as to believe Dewhurst is a mealy-mouthed rino, when he so obviously is not?
