The only way for Texas to be "liked" in DC would be to elect somebody who will vote in lockstep with Feinstein, Schumer, Boxer, and company. Is that the kind of influence we want? It certainly won't divert this nation from its march towards totalitarian government nor will that sort of senator (nor a "moderate" compromiser) protect our gun rights, help to keep more anti-gun Obama appointees off of the Supreme Court and lower courts, or prevent ratification of some UN anti-gun treaty.gdanaher wrote:Stand back for a moment and look at Cruz and the policies he is espousing. He may be popular amongst the tea party folks, but his election would likely further marginalize any influence that the state of Texas has in Washington, and that would do us little good.
The Senate may be the most crucial election of 2012. If we can get enough conservatives in the Senate to be "cloture proof", then we have a chance to, at least, throw a monkey wrench in the leftist machinery.
