Cruz admitted to this dirty trick. What's mischaracterized?

"admitted to this dirty trick" is a mischaracterization. Par for the Trump crew.

Cruz apologized for not verifying a story that CNN first reported and other campaigns also repeated.

“Trump can just brand Ted and Rubio with “D.C. Values”


The problem with this is that it is not true. Ted Cruz has not been a go-along-to-get-along senator in any way. He has made enemies of the Washington cartel and the GOP establishment.

But besides that, your analysis is just plain hogwash.

“Cruz admitted to this dirty trick. What’s mischaracterized?”

Your mischaracterization for starters. Cruz did not “admit” to any “dirty trick” and you know it. But keep saying it, maybe some idiot will believe you.

Makes me want to vote for Carson, he probably would have been a good president. Though his speeches shouldn’t be allowed on car radios.

It is the Carson comments, more than anything Trump has said, that make me question Cruz's integrity. The offenses are stacking up:

1. That disgusting mailer.

2. Rep King's unfounded assertions that Sarah Palin was on the take.

3. The interference within the caucuses.

Drip. Drip. Drip. Anything to win.

You are correct. Add to that the fact that Carson’s wife was at one of the caucuses when this information came out and set the record straight at that caucus. My question is why she didn’t get ahold of the Carson campaign so it could contact the other caucuses and put the issue to a rest. Seems this is more a case of amateur night on the Carson campaigns part from beginning of the Carson announcement to the end of the rumor rather than a dirty trick. But then Trump folks seem run off half cocked before finding out the facts.

Well I agree there should be accountability for such irresponsible, if not intentional, actions.

Seems to take a lot for Carson to get upset and he is. Perhaps the shine on Saint Cruz’s halo is a bit tarnished. He admits he will do what it takes to win and you have to admire that.

Best election ever

Pray America wakes

Cite for “He admits he will do what it takes to win”? Most will do what it takes to win. That is opposed to doing “anything” to win like Hillary. Can’t tell if you mean the former as the latter and as a hit or as it should be taken.

People are getting so sick of this Trump / Cruz brawl they going to vote for Rubio. He’s smarter staying above fray.

Ted Cruz has not been a go-along-to-get-along senator in any way.

Riiiiiight. No TPA vote, no vote on the deal with Iran, the big stink he made over the Ryan budget deal, . . .

Dream on bub, he's the sitting Senator from Texas a full member of the club and the noise he makes about Republicans is just showboating his fellow club members understand. He rocks the boat when he has approval to do so because nothing he does is going to upset the deal on whatever Ted is bitching about.

This: “He told voters Carson was dropping out of the Presidential race immediately before the Iowa caucus, causing a relative uproar inside the process, so the word would spread and he could rack up more votes for his candidate, Cruz. That’s a dirty trick. Dr. Carson deserved better.”

You know better.

I kind of agree. Although I think Trump has a point, he needs to move on IMO.

But Trump uncovers stuff, I don’t know how, but he does. But whatever he finds, he needs to make it relevant to what people care about in this election.

Maybe, but I don’t get how the saying “jumped the shark” means whatever it supposed to mean.

I thought it was interesting that Rush today actually called it fraud. I had to do a double take.

He said it when he finally admitted to the letter. The good news he is an NBC Natural Born Canadian.

His halo is a bit tilted right now and everyone will be ready for the next trick.
