Cruz didn't tweet Carson was going home to Florida. Show us that tweet.

True, Cruz (or his campaign worker) did not tweet that Carson was going home to Florida. (which happens to NOT be what I said)

The Cruz campaign person tweeted about CNN Tweets/Reports, stating that CNN was "reporting that Carson will stop campaigning after Iowa." Of the four CNN tweets about Carson, all four stated he would not be campaigning in NH or SC, and one stated he plans to take a break from campaigning. Was the statement that Carson will "stop campaigning" inaccurate? Yes, the CNN report only said "take a break from campaigning" rather than "stop campaigning". However, the statement is no more inaccurate than the phrase "staffers who spread false rumor" in the headline of this thread.

As for your request to "show us that tweet", see below:

Slimey,,Cruz knew Carson was taking a break, not stopping his Campaign.

And the letter from the Cruz campaign telling staffers to pass the info that Carson was out was not the info being passed. The true info CNN was passing was that Carson was taking a break. Cruz camp added to share the fact Carson was gone to his caucus voters and try to persuade them to vote for Cruz.

We’ve all been here before

Bill Clinton and Obama playing with words and phrases. Playing “catch me” or “prove it.” Many Freepers condemn that,,it’s sleazy. Now that Cruz is doing it, it’s ok.

And he’s trying to avoid the blame just like Obama does.

Doesn’t wash and you know it.
