Sen. Ted Cruz’s nascent campaign for the White House is running into its first signs of digital trouble.
While the firebrand Texas Republican prepares to announce his bid for the presidency on Monday morning, he does not appear to have control over the most obvious website to rally supporters: TedCruz.com.
Instead, people trying to visit that site will get the opposite message.
“Support President Obama,” the site says in simple white text on a black background. “Immigration reform now!” According to Internet records, TedCruz.com was created in April of 2004 but then switched ownership last spring. Archived versions of the website indicate that it was formerly run by an Arizona-based real estate firm, Ted Cruz and Associates.
The Cruz campaign appears like it will be using TedCruz.org as its primary website.
Opponents have also taken control of an alternate domain name for Cruz’s supporters: TedCruzforAmerica.com.
Instead of leading to a site for the senator or his political action committee, that website — which was created just Monday morning — automatically redirects users to HealthCare.gov, the website for people to find health insurance under ObamaCare.

I know a couple of them personally. They make money from time to time but it’s more like playing the lottery or the machine and they lose money over time.
If this is the best they have at the hill to hit Cruz with it is over for them already.
looks like the extreme left has really gone bonkers w/ this. Googling “cruz president” only turns up false or negative links. No mention of anywhere of http://cruzforpresident.com/
I bet the Cruz Supporters at the hill set up tedcruz.com. Just trying to be helpful. With an anti-Cruz site and accompanying story.

How juvenile. It sounds like the boys in their mothers’ basements don’t have much of a life. And yes, those who support Sen. Cruz won’t have trouble figuring out this childish prank.
Or if you don’t trust that the internet is safe from the lefts criminal behavior you can call his DC office at (202) 224-5922.
It is kind of busy there right now. It is what I did to request a donation form. It will be the first time I have donated to anything GOP in more than a decade.
perhaps a clintonsfoundation.com should be established”
