Been a busy week blowing things up and reading stories for an upcoming science fiction workshop, so here’s a quick senate race update:
Ted Cruz picks up the endorsement of Dallas-area U.S. Congressman Michael Burgess. Burgess had previously endorsed Tom Leppert.
The Cruz campaign released an internal poll showing Cruz leading Dewhurst 49%-40%. All the usual internal poll caveats apply.
More on the poll’s methodology. If memory serves, they never released any methodology on those Michael Baselice internal polls the Dewhurst team kept leaking to favored journalists…
And still more on the methodology.
Ted Cruz on Glenn Beck.
Past and current presidents of Texa Eagle Forum Split endorsements between Dewhurst and Cruz.
Cruz: Let’s have five debates. Dewhurst: OK. Cruz: OJ, let’s debate. Dewhurst Sorry, too busy simonizing my cat.
Cruz to Dewhurst surrogate Mike Richards: Thanks for coming out. Richards to Cruz: Die in a fire. I may be paraphrasing a little…
Kate Alexander offers up the current state of play.
Dewhurst sets up an Astroturf twitter feed: @TxSenFactCheck.
Dewhurst is willing to campaign after the election. Insert your own joke here.
