But, the best news for Cruz was in the PPP poll, he now beats both Trump and Carson among tea party and evangelicals-- if true, that's gig time- esp. in Iowa.
Cruz just keeps rising.
If it were to come down to Cruz and Trump, the two candidates teh Establishment seems to hate most, I wonder which one would be “the Establishment candidate”. Possibly the good crony capitalist?
Like I've said...he's only in it for the money which he can give to the party (which he just joined) or to his favorite charity called Ben.....You guess what he will do.
This is why I dint have problems with Trump so far out. Let him be the bullseye everyone targets and let a candidate emerge from the pack.

Nope, Hillary.
Is it racist to say a colored man is fading?
“The bottom line is no personal use, obviously,” Judith Ingram, a Federal Election Commission spokeswoman, told Capital Eye. “In addition, he can donate it to charity, or contribute it to the national party committee. He can contribute up to $2,000 to another candidate’s committee, put it into a PAC, convert his campaign committee into a PAC. He could do nothing with it ... if he decided to run again he could dip back into it.”
After retiring — or losing an election — politicians are not required to close down their campaign committees; they may keep them running indefinitely. Sometimes they do this to pay off campaign debt, or, to keep their war chest full if they were to ever seek office again. After paying down any debts, money is often spent to “wind down” the committee and pay off any office expenses.
For those who still have cash on hand, the FEC sets guidelines regarding how candidates’ committees may spend campaign funds. Other than the prohibition on personal use, there are few limitations. Punishments for violating the prohibition on personal use range from substantial fines to possible prison time.

Right on schedule
Ted Cruz surges to more than half the support of Donald Trump! I have really enjoyed seeing a Ted Cruz campaign rally almost every night for the past month!
In before the ‘Trumpeters’ show up saying even we love Cruz as VP or enough with the small fry lets hijack the thread and talk about Trump.
My theory is coming true, Carson fades and Cruz moves up.
Good news bump
It's a marathon, not a race.
Cruz To The Win

I know how you feel. For the past six months, I’ve enjoyed watching the pep rally Donald is holding for Ted Cruz.
Might be time for Carson to take some of those magic vitamins he promotes and see if they give him a boost.
[he’s only in it for the money]
CARSON will need to building an addition and maybe a sound room with the photo-ops and soundbites he receives from this election.
BEN CARSON’S love affair with himself along with the embellished recanting of his past sends up a red flag.
Do we need another Narcissist in Chief?
