A handful of political action committees created for Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) are expected to bring in $31 million this week, an eye-popping haul for a presidential candidate who has surprised many with his early ability to raise money.
The four super PACs, which will operate under the name "Keep the Promise," submitted paperwork to the FEC Monday. They will be led by Dathan Voelter, an Austin CPA and attorney who is close friends with Cruz.
"Our goal is to guarantee Senator Cruz can compete against any candidate,” Voelter said in a statement confirming the haul, which was first reported by Bloomberg. “Supporters of the Senator now have a powerful vehicle with the resources necessary to aid in his effort to secure the Republican nomination and win back The White House.”
Cruz's ability to raise money has been one of the biggest question marks of his newly-minted candidacy. So far he is surprising many -- including himself, he said on the stump last week in Iowa.

Almost as big as the pizza business!
Newsrooms are in a panic.
Expect to see a wave of investigative journalism the likes of which the world has not seen since watergate. No pebble will be left uncrushed to powder
Make it rain, Mr. Cruz!
The Left is going insane over Ted cruz. I don't know why.................
The PostPukes are doing backflips....choke on it!!!
I believe Cruz tilled a considerable amount of ground and forged some financial paths way back when he and Mike Lee put together the Senate Conservative Committee. Those two seemed from the beginning to have had a plan, albeit a loose plan, to simply try for the brass ring, but always keeping the best interest of the country first, navigating without burning too many bridges by show time.
Cruz is betting on the people. And, his wife may have helped him attract bigger money to saturate the people with what he believes and wants to do.
Well, impressive for a week... but it’s only 2 percent of what you need to run a presidential campaign nowadays.
The corporatists are funding Rove’s candidates while the citizen is funding Cruz...I bet this annoys the open borders big govt corporatists!
GO CRUZ.
The only one who has convictions and will take the media on and will not flip flop to get elected.
They are very frightened in the RINO suite and over and Clinton Inc.
$31 million in one week, Let’s say he keeps this up. There are about 50 weeks from now till next April.
That’s $1.5 Billion in a year ! Enough money to match Hillary.
(one can only hope).
exactly right.
Speaking of which I saw Paul in his Hannity interview and it confirmed to me I could not vote him.
Paul on his running speech.
” I see an America where criminal justice is applied equally and any law that disproportionately incarcerates people of color is repealed.”
I hate that stuff. regardless of a race then all should be treated equally, but it seems some will say anything to get more votes.
Cruz should get much more IF he treats the GOPe they way they treated(are Treating) him.. expose them.. Mock them..
YES!!!!!
die establishment die!
CRUZ AHEAD!
When he talks about laws that disproportionately incarcerate people of color, is he referring to laws against murder and rape?
