I’m old enough to remember when Texas had bigger-than-life senators across the political spectrum: (Lloyd Bentsen, John Connolly, and I’d even add Kay Bailey Hutchison). Nowadays we have a US Senator who acts like he plays one on TV (Cornyn)—and we’ve also got Ted Cruz.

I’m Texas-born and raised, and no matter how far from reality the mythos of the Alamo, Sam Houston, and other figures in Texas consciousness, Ted Cruz just doesn’t measure up.

I want a larger-than-life, heroic Senator again. I’m voting for Collin Allread.
