This slime ball helped Cruz steal votes from Dr. Carson. The doctor was looking forward to Iowa, said a lot of people would be surprised. He might have taken 2nd or 3rd place but now will never know.

It’s unacceptable.

I agree—Carson probably was third and should have gotten 5 votes, and now we have the Rubio train chugging faster thanks to Faux News and Rush Limbaugh...thanks Cruz.

frankly, I am very disappointed at the willingness of some politicians and their advocates to basically say their end justifies whatever means—that is neither honest nor Christian.

I did not agree with Cruz on his particular religious doctrine or faith, but I used t think he was a man of integrity—not a “well it is not illegal so it is OK” kind of guy. I used to admire King for his stand on immigration, but King outright lied in his tweets to get his guy in.

It is not acceptable, and now Rubio is gaining—something few on FR wanted.

I truly believe that very, very few caucus-goers who supported Carson would have been tricked into not voting for him absent Carson himself stating it. Certainly not enough to account for the 1000s he would have needed to beat Rubio for third.

That being said, it showed a distasteful lack of class, ethics and honor on the part of Cruz to willingly lie about a good man like Dr. Carson.

So in the end, it truly made zero difference to the outcome in terms of delegates, but it sullied Ted Cruz more than he and his die hards realize.

I was definitely supporting Cruz up until that rotten trick. Now, he goes into the category: I will vote for him in the general, but that is as much support as he is getting from me.

My family members who were on the fence got knocked off said fence by Cruz himself, and not onto his side. In the end, I am glad I know this early on the content of his character.
