Polls close at 8 p.m. ET. Two months ago, PPP had Dewhurst leading — by 25 points. As of yesterday, Cruz leads by 10 and is poised for arguably the most momentous upset in the brief but successful history of grassroots conservative challenges.
Another part of Cruz’s strategy involved nationalizing the race and attracting prominent conservatives to boost his credentials and name recognition. Tea Party darling and former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, along with South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint, a conservative stalwart, rallied 1,500 supporters in Houston over the weekend on Cruz’s behalf. Before the May primary, Palin voiced robo-calls for Cruz, calling him a trustworthy conservative who would change “the way Washington does businesses” and noting that the candidate’s father fled Cuba “seeking freedom.”…

Yes, the Tea Party Patriots will help fire Obama
+16There are a lot of 'stealth' Tea Partiers out there. They don't go to rallys. They don't contribute money. They don't belong to area groups, but they agree with everything the Tea Party stands for. What Pelosi doesn't understand when she claims the Tea Party is "Astro Turf" is that those believers are not an organized group. The Tea Party groups simply express what the 'stealth' patriots believe in their hearts and souls.
The reports of the Tea Party's death have been greatly exaggerated.
Semper Fi
Pres. Obama and the MSM have no idea cause they are blind and deaf.
They are desperate to get it back and a groundswell is growing that will reach it's crescendo in November and will sweep the Communist Democrats out of office..
It will be a triumph if they beat the democrat - then and only then will I celebrate. We have too many examples of winning the primary and losing the office.
And, Washington, DC needs an enema!
Dewhurst is just like Perry, they give great speeches and tow-the-line when it comes to rhetoric. But when it comes to actions in office these two are as liberal as most Democrats. Dewhurst presided over the largest single tax increase in the state just 2 years ago but all his TV ads were talking about how he's lowered them. He backed increased spending just like Dubya did, but his TV ads say he cut spending. We have blatant liars in congress and the white house already.
The GOP need to dump all these bed-wetting liberals from their midst, unfortunately they prefer power to ideals, so they'll side with whoever they think will gain office and disregard all the liberal policies of people like these and Dubya.
Truth be told Cruz is somewhat of an unknown, but I backed him fully in both primaries simply because I knew that Dewhurst was a liberal lying to keep office. You'd better believe I intend for him to live up to the things he said or he can rot in hell with the other lying liberals like Dewhurst/Perry/Bush-I/Bush-II...
