Imagine how lame you’d have to be, to worry about this trash. On to NH!
I doubt it will work twice for Carson, eventually he will run out of tricks and diversions.
That’s a helpful timeline to understanding this.

this can’t be? you said it wasn’t true?
I don’t understand. Where is the Rubio campaign’s tweet?
You “forgot”some important things in your timeline.
CNN first reported it around 5 pm
The source was a Carson staffer.
Rubio’s campaign was also spreading the rumor.
The Carson campaign had several hours to clean it up. They didn’t.
The Carson campaign wants everyone else to name and fire staffers. They’re not.
It was a monumentally stupid announcement to make by the Carson campaign. They’re not owning up to their own stupidity and blaming others.
Donald Trump is monummonumentally stupid to keep bringing this up. He’s a sore loser, pretty and vindictive. Now the world can see our clearly.
Please post the Rove interview here too.
They said "Cruz" and "out" in the same paragraph.
Actually they never said "out".
See how this works.
Here are some other tweets...
From the Carson campaign: 
And then this one:

And it was a Carson supporter behind the lawsuit in Illinois to knock Cruz off the primary ballot.
That image is a Tweet from a Cruz fan with fewer than 4,000 followers.
It is not affiliated with the Cruz campaign.
But who cares about facts?
The thread has already been posted. I’ll cross post here and have a link to the thread below.
Here’s Rove’s timeline about what happened in Iowa. We all know Rove very much dislikes Trump. He doesn’t do favors for Trump on purpose. Even a broken clock gets it right sometimes.

“On Wednesday, Karl Rove, not a Trump fan by any means, explained how the cheating could have cost Donald Trump the election in Iowa.
“The Cruz Campaign, Spence Rogers, sends out a tweet. And the tweet is headlined, “Press says that Carson is going to take a break”... so tell all the Carson people to campaign with Cruz. At 7:53 the Carson people send out a release saying, “We’re here. We’re staying in the race. We’re going to New Hampshire and South Carolina.” And at 8:20 the national co-chairman of the Cruz campaign, Steve King, sends out a tweet saying, “It looks like Carson is getting out of the race.” Now they knew at this point that this was inaccurate.
“Senator Cruz in his initial explanation about this said we were sending it to our team, leaving the implication, I suspect, to most viewers, that this had to do with sending it out to staff members. No, no, no... They sent this to their nearly 1,500 precinct captains. There are 1,500 precincts in the state. And they sent this message from Spence Roberts (Rogers). Now why does that matter. Now the gap between Donald Trump and Ted Cruz is 6,239 votes. There are 1,500 precincts. Do the math... If that message cost Carson four votes per precinct to switch to Cruz, then Cruz beats Trump. If he doesn’t switch four, then he loses. “

No one. Frickin. Cares.
While you obsessives browbeat each other with this irrelevant minutiae, America is burning down.
Carson’s mouth did all the hanky panky to himself.
Who spread and exaggerated the rumor instead of verifying it at the source. One of the posts on this thread seems to be from Cruz himself spreading the rumor and taking advantage of it, rather than seeking verification.
