Tonight’s victory by Ted Cruz just goes to show money can't
always buy what you want. Lite Governor
Dewhurst loaned his campaign nearly $25 million during this campaign just so he
could claim the title of Senator. It is
amazing that a candidate with virtually no name recognition could out raise a
sitting Lt. Governor and then trounce him in a runoff election. This illustrates one important point. Texans are sick and tired of moderate
Republicans that claim to be Conservative when election time rolls around. David Dewhurst threw everything but the
Battleship Texas at Ted Cruz, but the voters saw this sham for what is was.
Ted Cruz, the longest serving Solicitor General in Texas
history, will now face former Democratic state Rep. Paul Saddler in the
November match up. Mr. Saddler beat
perennial candidate Grady Yarbrough to capture the Democratic Party
nomination. It must be pointed out that
no Democrat has been elected to statewide office in Texas since 1994. That being said, Ted Cruz can most likely
start measuring the drapes for his new office. I can
only imagine the jubilation Rafael Cruz (Ted Cruz’s father) must feel right
about now. Rafael journeyed from
communist Cuba to the United States with only $100 sewn into his underwear. Now he has the opportunity to see his son serve
in the United States Senate.
I would like to congratulate Ted Cruz for a fine campaign and
I hope he will make all Conservatives (Texas and beyond) very proud. There is a real chance that Barack Obama gets
re-elected and if that nightmarish scenario actually occurs, we will need people
like Ted Cruz to fend off Obama’s socialist agenda. Gird your loins; November will be an exciting
time and one that will shape America's future for decades to come.
