Oh, and I forgot to mention, Ted Cruz’s maternal grandfather must have been the drunk driver who killed Dewhurst’s father. I mean, he was Irish-American and raised a daughter who studied math at Rice University, married a Cuban and moved to Canada for a few years while she and her husband were working in the oil industry, so we know he must have been a drinker (and since he married an Italian-American, he probably fought *for* the Nazis). I tell you, that Ted Cruz is bad news, while David Dewhurst could be the next Lamar! Alexander.
I’m gonna respond to your funny posts attacking Lt. Governor Dewhurst because I like your screen name.
Why do you feel it necessary to attack Dewhurst when you are supporting Cruz? Are you taking your cues from the Romney attack campaign? That is no way to behave when someone tells you why they support one conservative over another.
David Dewhurst is not a RINO. I trust him to represent the interests of the State of Texas more than I do Cruz at this time, one reason is, being told Cruz is a Romney supporter during the primaries is, I think, justifiably concerning. Is it not true?
As regards Cruz, I do like him very much, I just think the jump from where he is right now to Senator is just too big a leap. I just want more proof of his conservative elective office behavior before entrusting him at age 41 with one of Texas two US senate seats. And the senate is not the route to the Supreme Court anyway. That is projecting way too far ahead.
With his brilliant background and education he should be able to write some law that would be bulletproof while representing the Texas congressional district in which he makes his home first. We even have several open house seats due to redistricting this year.
People recognize it’s just not right to attack your own party opponents in the party primaries that way. Why do you think the GOP-e is having to resort to saying essentially VOTE ABO, YOU MUST VOTE ROMNEY to the conservative electorate or the country will fall? It’s a result of the scorched-earth tactics taken in the primaries!
