Cruz is owned by a different Billionaire. Money is not an issue for any of them

Cruz is “owned”, eh?

Class Warfare belongs in the other party.

How many politicians do you think Trump “owns” since he bought off a bunch of him and had enough influence to insist that a killer of “hundreds of thousands” attend his wedding?

Ummm.. no. We are talking about hard cash campaign money, not soft money SuperPAC money. Santorum had very little hard cash campaign money left after Iowa. That's exactly the same problem that sank Walker and Rick Perry this year. Both had SuoerPACs with plenty of cash in their coffers, but no hard cash in their campaign coffers. By law the campaigns cannot touch SuperPAC money or even coordinate with them.

You are right about the donors...Here’s some of Ted Cruz Super PAC donors....

Keep the Promise I Super PAC 11,000,000 from Renaissance Technologies LLC
Keep the Promise II Super PAC 10,000,000 Caprock Partners
Keep the Promise III Super PAC Wilks Brothers $15,000,000

I am not sure how the FEC decided to categorize the donation by Renaissance Technologies LLC as real estate when they are clearly Hedge Fund/Securities firm.

All data from Opensecrets.org

Cruz would like to get his $1,000,000 that he personally loaned to his Senate Campaign that is still on the his books.
