I am suspcious of the PPP poll showing Cruz with a big margin (PPP is a liberal polling firm with a poor record); but I think Cruz will pull out a win....Dewhurst looked pitiful in the last two debates...and the Tea Party is very strong in all quarters of Texas.....even moderates think the Republican establishment is out of touch.....Palin has been campgaining hard for Cruz in the closing days...the Tea Party, the enthusiasm of Cruz supporters, a generational divide within the Texas Republican ranks, and the lack of regard the party base currently holds for Rick Perry...are all factors playing into Cruz's favor....
AND Cruz is hispanic; this has gone un-reported but I think Cruz is pulling in alot of latino voters ....
On a side note; Dewhurst was so pititful in the debate that he actually apologized for not being a "good speaker".....and he wants a seat in the Senate?????
A Cruz win is a huge
incremental step toward a more Constitutional Republic !
A half-dozen more Cruz/DeMinit/Coburn/Paul and the balance of power within the GOP shifts to the Tea Party.....The GOP establishment is in fear of this scenario.
The nay sayers thought Walker was toast; and the Tea Party delivered big time in Wisconsin,,,,same thing in Texas today !
I suspect the Cruz victory is already a done deal. Early voting turn out was record breaking......

You see there is an election for the US Senate going on between mainstrean, tax supporting, Obama care supporting (sort of) republican (RINO) David Dewhurst and Tea Party favorite Ted Cruz. At this time Cruz is expected to win by 10 points which is a substantial Tea Party victory. When Cruz wins it will echo around the country that the Tea Party is still here and in it to win it. Up here Sara Palin is supporting Sarah Steelman for the Senate. Her opponent will be the walking dead Claire "I'm supposed to pay taxes on my private jet?" McCaskill.
