It’s not as though accepting the money from special interests now is somehow less corrupting than accepting it during the primaries. People who write million dollar checks tend to expect payback regardless of the date on the check.

There is a bit of space between "self funding" and "accepting the money from special interests." I mean, one does not necessarily leap from one to the next. He's raising money for GOP candidates, and he expects GOP money and resources to help him in the general. He's always accepted individual donations (so technically, he's never been purely self funding). What moneyed special interest has stepped up to buy him?

NewbieEddyFan, I’m going to assume you a deluded Cruzlim. Time to move on from the primaries or your boy TPA Ted Cruz will take another beating here. Understand?

Exactly. Why the huge flip-flop?

Why would you think it would come from special interests? All you need is the party to get out the lists and the organization and do just a LITTLE fundraising.

But, of course, the non-Trump Cruzers, whose guy got his @ss whipped badly, are still butt hurt that they couldn’t even win the “very conservative” vote in most states.
