Cruz has been fighting conservative battles without compromise"
Texas Insider Report: AUSTIN TX Young Conservatives of Texas (YCT) today endorsed Ted Cruz for U.S. Senate.
Ted Cruz is the strongest proven conservative weve seen in years" said Tony McDonald YCT Senior Vice Chairman. Ted Cruz blends passion principle and eloquence with a great depth of understanding of the issues. Conservative grassroots activists across Texas are fighting for Ted Cruz because Ted doesnt just talk about conservative values hes been on the front lines fighting and winning conservative battles without compromise."
I am honored that Young Conservatives across Texas are standing with me as we take the conservative fight to the U.S. Senate. YCT is a principled organization of young leaders who work tirelessly to elect conservative Republicans not Republicans in name only" said Cruz. Our campaign continues to build momentum with an army of grassroots conservatives who will not be intimidated by establishment Republicans seeking to buy Texas senate seat."
McDonald noted that many in the establishment want to simply anoint a candidate in the Senate race but that conservative voters in Texas arent buying it and will be heard at the ballot box.
When the media asked how Scott Brown could serve in Ted Kennedys seat he rightfully reminded them that its the peoples seat. In the same way the Senate seat in Texas doesnt belong to the highest bidder and just because David Dewhurst can write an enormous personal check doesnt mean he can buy this race" McDonald said.
The people of Texas need a strong leader who will lead the fight against the Obama agenda not a go-along-to-get-along moderate like Dewhurst who has supported a state income tax defended in-state tuition for illegal immigrants thanked President Obama for the stimulus funds and killed the TSA groping bill at the Presidents request" added Jeff Morris YCTs State Chairman.
Ted Cruz is the only candidate in this race with a proven record of standing up against President Obama and fighting for conservative principles. Thats why Ted Cruz needs to be our next U.S. Senator from Texas. Were endorsing early because this race is ground zero in the battle nationally between true conservative fighters and the establishment" Morris concluded.
Young Conservatives of Texas has been promoting conservatism at universities across the Lone Star State for over three decades. The states most active political youth organization YCT is composed of hundreds of members and alumni who participate in the full spectrum of politics.
