Well, now Ted Cruz will get to become a "creature of the establishment."
I suppose I was supporting Dewhurst because he came across as more pragmatic and able to compromise than Cruz. I guess the plus for Cruz is that he is very young so perhaps he can serve four terms and just be in his 60s (Dewhurst is already 65). Another plus is that he is sure to win anyway.
I keep thinking of the tea party losers who have cost the GOP a Senate majority or jeopardized otherwise sure wins: Miller (AK), O'Donnell (DE), Murdock (IN), and Fischer (NE). Cruz isn't in this category, so it is less daunting.
