"But, then, Cruz's record as a lawyer has left him vulnerable to similar rhetoric from Dewhurst's campaign about some Cruz clients who were unsavory (a "judge-bribing felon") or impolitic (a Chinese tire company)."

A lawyer doesn't necessarily represent the ideals of the client. They're hired to represent them in the case at hand. And you got your info from Dewhearst campaign commercials, not investigating who the "Chinese tire company" really was.

Also, Cruz was Texas solicitor general and argued infront of the Supreme Court several times, and won. He's a strict constitutional conservative. The "Doesn't-Play-Well-With-Others Caucus" description is unfair. Playing well with others created the huge fed we're dealing with today.

I read quite a bit about Mr. Cruz. From an outsider's point of you, he's what we conservatives want.

I watched a debate between Dewhurst and Cruz, and Cruz debated Dewhurst eloquently, from my point of view. Over and again Dewhurst stumbled, mumbled, and crumbled. We can have another "get-along" representative, or we can have someone who will question the status quo. I prefer the latter.
