Yea, this time linking to an article written by Michael Isikoff that, of course, had an explanation for why Cruz's people can't answer:

The Cruz campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment. But in his March 8 letter to the FEC, Bradley Knippa, the treasurer of Cruz’ 2012 campaign, offered this explanation for declining the request from FEC auditors: It is already cooperating with another arm of the agency — its enforcement division — that is conducting a separate review of the loans in response to the complaints filed by Texans for Public Justice and another advocacy group. And those reviews are conducted under strict confidentiality rules that, Knippa argued, forbid making any more information public.

More nonsense from the gutter.

The article mentions that the difference between the enforcement arm and the investigative arm is that the enforcement arm takes the longest to do anything, more than likely a year.

This is what Cruz did in the first place, disclosing the loans not when he transferred them to his campaign within 15-30 days, as he was legally supposed to do, but simply disclosed them on a financial report as self-made loans after his victory over Dewhurst was guaranteed.

See a pattern? Consequently, the media first picked up the story after he was already elected, and, weirdly, he did nothing to rectify the records back then but waited till he was accused by the media a second time during this Presidential election.
