I’m surprised we’re not hearing more about this. To me, this is a big deal. Any comment from Ms. Fiorina yet? Any explanation from Crooze?

This has been posted already a few times. I;m tired of it. I think they have a poor case, and no one has actually committed any misdeeds.

The money came from a superpac, not Cruz.

What would be an innocent explanation for this? It had better be good, because the hush $ is highly believable as a true reason.

I know I’m pretty naïve...but could someone explain to me how this would be hush money. I thought it was a transfer between super pacs and not available to the actual campaigns. So how could it be transferred as hush money?

I thought it was pretty common for this to happen between pacs? Although my participation in this matter is brief..I didn’t think it was against the rules. I thought once the money went to a pac...it was theirs to spend how they see fit. For instance...one of Rick Perry’s pacs refunded money to the donors when he withdrew.

Disclaimer: I’m not on the Trump OR Cruz train. I am strictly beat Hill/bern at whatever cost. But I am curious.

I feel like we’re in a game of chicken right now. Nobody wants to make the next move. Eveybody’s waiting to see what the other guy is going to do first before making their next move. It appears that there is a damaging video out there. I wonder who has it and why they haven’t gone public yet.

Son Of A Preacher Man
By Dusty Springfield

Billy Ray was a preacher’s son
And when his daddy would visit he’d come along
When they gathered around and started talkin’
That’s when Billy would take me walkin’
Out through the back yard we’d go walkin’
Then he’d look into my eyes
Lord knows, to my surprise

The only one who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
The only boy who could ever teach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes he was, he was, ooh, yes he was

Bein’ good isn’t always easy
No matter how hard I try
When he started sweet-talkin’ to me
He’d come’n tell me “Everything is all right”
He’d kiss and tell me “Everything is all right”
Can I get away again tonight?

The only one who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
The only boy who could ever teach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes he was, he was, ooh, yes he was (yes he was)

How well I remember
The look that was in his eyes
Stealin’ kisses from me on the sly
Takin’ time to make time
Tellin’ me that he’s all mine
Learnin’ from each other’s knowin’
Lookin’ to see how much we’ve grown and

The only one who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
The only boy who could ever teach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes he was, he was, oh yes he was

(The only one who could ever reach me)
He was the sweet-talkin’ son of a preacher man
(The only boy who could ever teach me)
Was the son of a preacher man
(The only one who could ever reach me)
Was the sweet-talkin’ son of a preacher man

This is such BS.

This wouldn’t even make it past the first reading of a Pakistani TV soap opera script meeting.

Why does anyone post such unsubstantiated krep from anyone with a camcorder and an unfilled Thorazine prescription?

I have a link to a man who claims he has proof that the Earth is actually circled by a Saturn-like ring made up off all the lost socks that have ever gone missing in a clothes dryer.... and it’s being hidden from us in a plot by the Illuminati, paid for by the secret treasury of the Queen of England.

Shall we post that too?

“...is now said to be looking into...”

Translation: “I just made this up.”

If you can’t say who’s saying it, no-one is saying it but you.

Let's examine the facts, shall we?

The transfer of $500,000 from a Cruz super-PAC to a Fiorina super-PAC is a FACT.

It's also a fact, if I'm not mistaken, that one of the women Ted Cruz allegedly had an affair with worked for the Fiorina campaign at the time.

It's also apparently a fact, again if I'm not mistaken, that that $500,000 transaction raised eyebrows at the FEC.

I'd like to hear the explanation for this transaction. It does seem unusual to have such a transfer between the super-PACs of two opposing campaigns.

For now, there aren't a lot of other facts.

I'm quite sure that there will be more information forthcoming. Everyone should just keep their powder dry and stop engaging in wild speculation, including the lobbing of unfounded accusations and counter-accusations.

There's no need for Cruz supporters to get hysterical yet. The truth will come out.

I'm a Trump supporter, and I'm withholding judgement on this Cruz story. I am highly skeptical that Donald Trump had anything to do with the release of this story, especially since the Rubio campaign was clearly Tweeting about it a couple of weeks ago, and now people are going back and trying to scour those tweets.

But the primary mystery is whether any of these allegations are true. There does seem to be some circumstantial evidence accumulating, but as yet there's not enough to draw any concrete conclusions.

As more information emerges, it's going to be either incriminating or exculpatory for Ted Cruz, so let's just wait and see.

I know everyone wants instant gratification and for all the facts to explode onto the scene immediately, but that's not how these things work.

In any event, there's ample time for this story to "shake out" before the Wisconsin primary...

Is your Jesus telling you to post article after article of baseless slander and rumors and post endless slander, lies, and gossip, and rumors?

YOUR GOD says he hates those who slander others. That little missy means he hates YOUR behavior on FR. YOU are bigger hypocrite than what you claim Ted Cruz is.

An utter disgrace as someone who claims to have anything to do with Christ.
