Sarah Palin posted the following note of congratulations on her Facebook page to Ted Cruz who was victorious in his run-off in Texas today. Mr. Cruz (the future Senator Cruz) now goes on the ballot for the general election in November as the Republican candidate for U.S. Senate.
Congratulations to Ted Cruz! This is a victory both for Ted and for the grassroots Tea Party movement. This primary race has always been about the kind of leadership we need in D.C. Our goal is not just about changing the majority in the Senate. It is about the kind of leadership we want. Ted Cruz represents the kind of strong conservative leadership we want in D.C. Go-along to get-along career politicians who hew the path of least resistance are no longer acceptable at a time when our country is drowning in debt and our children's futures are at stake. The message of this race couldn't be clearer for the political establishment: the Tea Party is alive and well and we will not settle for business as usual. Now, it's on to November!
