While investigating the upcoming race to replace RINO Kay Bailey Hutchison in Texas, it has come to our attention that there is a young candidate claiming to be a movement conservative, but who probably actually fits more into the mold of the Federalist Society and other Ivy League lawyer elites.

Former Texas solicitor general, Ted Cruz, was quoted recently in the Washington Post saying that he sees the 2010 election "as incredible moment in time" and predicts a "real move in the coming year" toward calling a convention - referring to a Constitutional Convention.

Ted Cruz and the Texas Lt. Governor - David Dewhurst, a true establishment politician who is commonly referred to as "Dewcrist" because of the personal and political characteristics he shares with the former governor of Florida - have both staked out a Constitutional Convention as a plank in their platforms. 

Ted Cruz is currently running aggressively for the Senate seat and has started downplaying his support for his Ivy League ways in this pursuit.

He wants to convince Texas Republican primary voters - a group that is not usually taken with the Ivy League credentials Mr. Cruz so proudly wears while in D.C. - that he is part of the grassroots movement that is bringing real change to Washington.

The problem is that if Ted Cruz were to get elected somehow, how would anyone really know where he stands on the critical issue of protecting the U.S. Constitution?

Will he be with his Ivy League colleagues? Or would he stand with the Tea Party Patriots and Founding Fathers? 

Right now Washington D.C. is literally overrun with Ivy League elites - think Barack Hussein Obama - who think they're smarter than the Founding Fathers and who regard most Americans as sheep to be herded.

Let's hope Texas doesn't go from RINO to worse this election. Hutchison was not a true movement conservative, but at least she hailed from the heartland.

Incidentally, Ted Cruz is in company with Jesse Jackson Jr. on the matter of wanting to rewrite the U.S. Constitution.

We haven't heard much from him lately, but before he went into hiding, this speech on the floor of the U.S. House by then Congressman Jackson gave us an idea of the debates we could expect at Ted Cruz's Constitutional Convention.
