Dewhurst has been a major ally of our uber RINO House Speaker Joe Strauss. Strauss owes his speakership to Dems and was originally elected with just a handful of GOP votes and big Dem support. He has since consistently packed committee chairmanships with lefties. He opposed voter ID laws until the last election booted enough RINOs out that we finally got it passed,
Dewhurst and his buddy Strauss are CLASSIC cases guys who talk conservative but when push comes to shove do everything they can to block a conservative agenda.
On top of which his campaign has been appallingly dishonest. He borrowed a page from his buddy Myth, actually shamelessly attacking a true conservative from the right after spending a lifetime opposing conservatism.
He’s truly vile. Want to learn more? Just google Joe Strauss RINO and know that Dewhurst is tied at the hip to the guy.

Thanks!
Go, Ted!
You put it better than I. Dumping Straus as Speaker ought to be of paramount importance.
Indeed. He also seems to have similar connections in DC. This is from The Examiner:
Late last year, Dewhurst held a reception at the townhouse of powerful lobbying firm Podesta Group."
Yes, that's those Podestas.
