Getting nasty already. I remember the Bush/McCain South Carolina primary and the illegitimate black child rumors.

I thought I was reading this morning where Ted had a new commercial out that was very good against Trump.

What goes around comes around.

Yup.

Specious claims made by selectively taking a vote out of context of why Ted Cruz made the vote and then making the false claim that he aligns with Bernie.

This group is not conservative, it’s a front for the GOP-E!

just a waste of money when you make stuff up

Cruz is not weak on defense, and this Canadian thing is just getting tiresome.

There are plenty of legitimate lines of attack on Cruz and anyone else. Stick to those, and your money will be much better spent.

A “conservative” group?

No it is not. Another lie.

I heard this ad this morning. The problem for the PAC is that, for the accusations to be credible, they must bear some kernel of truth. The portrait they paint of Cruz is too out of phase with his known conservative record to be effective.

What’s Ted ever done for veterans, I wonder?

$6 million in one night. Trump!

There’s an anti-Trump PAC that is kicking up another gear as well - led by someone named Katie Packer. Twitter noise is she works for Pro-Rubio company called WWP

This foundation/fund/group is from Iowa and is most closely associated with the Santorum campaign. Santorum endorsed Rubio, ergo the attempt to knee-cap Cruz here comes in a roundabout way from a Rubio supporter.
\Strange bedfellows

Who does American Future Fund support? Guarantee you it isn’t a Conservative.

The outside group, overseen by veteran GOP operative Nick Ryan, is spending $1.5 million to air the commercial.

The only one who benefits from this ad buy launched by Nicholas T. Ryan will be Donald Trump. But Ryan could be funded by the gOpE, stupidly thinking it would help them.

What would Cruz do if he got the figurative 3am phone call?

Let him have his day, call it an AMERICA Apprentice Show.

Trump, Cruz, Bush, Rubio and whoever else still in the game, its just another episode of the Apprentice.

But who will be the last, to sit in the Whitehouse?

Who has quit, who will, who will try to bribe the game?

Cruz won’t even campaign in Nevada outside of hoity toity donor/PAC events with $1,000+ entry fees, probably due to Nevada’s huge military population?

Here is the difference: If Cruz acted like Trump I would not support him. Trump’s supporters will actually support him if he starts shooting randomly on Fifth Avenue. That is fine. The pretense that all Cruz is evil and all Trump is angelic and pure is fine. But please don’t whine because Cruz is actually running ads.

Boy those ethanol supporters just can’t stand the thought that someone who actually opposes their gravy train might actually win somewhere.

Certainly would expect someone like Sandy Greiner, who heads up American Future Fund, to attack Ted Cruz.

She is an Iowa state senator whom has strong ties with Gov. Terry Branstad. Of course she will be against Cruz.

In all likelihood, she is on the doll for the ethanol industry. Given her stated occupation as being a farmer, this is almost guaranteed.

The other folks from American Future Fund were the remnants of the 2008 Romney campaign in Iowa.

Real SOLID conservatives...

Hey! What the hell happened to Trump’s covert Alabama lawsuit about Cruz NBC?

Guess that was just another DONEald BS story that went nowhere and was sweep under the rug.
