Correct me if I'm wrong @IsailedawayfromFR but Cruz bypassed the non existent Texas Money with personal contributions and Rebecca Mercer.
Cruz was elected to the US Senate because Texans believe him and as far as I'm concerned he hasn't let me down, not once, not yet. (he is a politician, after all)
Am I beginning to sound like a Trumpster, with all this blind devotion?
Ted had some money coming in, but it was paltry next to Dewhurst, something like one tenth as much.
It was not money that elected Ted Cruz.
Intelligence in his spoken words, his obvious moral upbringing, his Hispanic name and a fervor felt by others in doing what is right for America and Texas.
I met him over a friend's house during the runoff. He is genuine and a family man. Scares the hell out of the libs.
