The Texas GOP senate primary; Update: Romney clinches nomination; Update: Cruz forces runoff with Dewhurst "Three things to watch tonight. One: Texas is going to put Romney over the top in delegates so we may get a formal victory speech from Mitt."....
Today's GOP primary in Texas follows nasty campaigns "Some of the campaigning has been truly nasty. That's particularly been the case in the race for the senate seat of retiring Kay Bailey Hutchison. The two frontrunners, Lt. Governor David Dewhurst and former Texas Solicitor General Ted Cruz, have called each other liars in television ads.
