Even before the 2012 election for Texas' next U.S. Senator went into full swing, I was rooting for Ted Cruz.
This country does not need any more establishment types who will cut a little off the edge of budget deficits and national debt.
We need legislators across the country who will take a chain saw, a machete, acid launchers, just about anything to bring down the debt and stop the spending that is robbing this country of potential investment and purchasing power.
The GOP needs as much minority support as possible, too, not just to maintain a competitive edge in a country whose demographics are changing dramatically, but also to allay the unjustified fears that constitutional rule, limited government, and fiscal conservatism are only the by-words for rich, white males who want to subject all other races, creeds, and colors to post-racial segregation of poverty and political inaction.
As a Tea Party sympathizer in Southern California, I ask that every voter in Texas reject the status quo of "cut just enough" and send Ted Cruz into the general election and on to Washington D.C. in November.
