I've said this from the start of the scandal. The "shaming" mailing (which nobody talks about anymore) crossed a line that would not play well in New England. And now spreading the Carson story, with explanations that just make the campaign seem more deceitful and opportunistic.

There are two choices. Either Cruz does not control his campaign staff or he has directed them to do whatever it takes to win. Yeah, it's an issue. Most folks take voting fairness and laws pretty seriously.

[Sasparilla]

Business as usual

[Mollypitcher1]

Yeah, it’s an issue. Most folks take voting fairness and laws pretty seriously.

I agree and the scandals revealed just what a cad Cruz really is.

[erlayman]

I agree. The only reason he has proudly refused to apologize for the mailer was that it didn’t get the media attention of the Carson lie.

This is the latest 3 day rolling Reuters Poll

http://polling.reuters.com/#poll/TR130/filters/PARTY_ID_:2/dates/20160131-20160205/type/day

Trump a solid 39 percent first place
Second place a distant 16 percent.

[Cboldt]

I think Cruz will send a shaming mailing in NH too. Supposedly, they are effective.

Spreading the Carson dropout rumor or news was an opportunistic event - we don't know if a similar opportunity will present itself on Tuesday, and even if it did, the time window for primary voting is pretty broad, unlike the time window for a caucus. I don't foresee a "flash in the pan" rumor as having any effect. What has play is the persistent untruth, such as "Trump is for single payer" and "Trump is for touchback amnesty."

[hollyweed]

Trump lost.

[tennmountainman]

Cruz pretends to be Lilly white.
He is worse than the rest of them.

[Zenjitsuman]

Not much difference between Hillary always saying she didn’t know, was never told and Ted Millhouse Cruz.

He didn’t know he was a Canadian Citizen until 1.5 years ago- hah

He a Supreme Court bar lawyer former Texas solicitor General, didn’t know he had to report the TWO $500,000 loans from influential banks Goldman Sachs and Citibank?
I don’t believe in the tooth fairy and I know Ted is lying

He has a PAC run by a guy named Mercer who the IRS says owes 5 billion dollars. Mercer is a hedge fund manager.
Ted my Momma said you are known by the company you keep.

Ted gets loans and Super Pac money from New York but rails against New York Values. Even thought his wife is a long time Goldman Sachs employee.

Then there is flip flopping in the Bret Bair interview on Amnesty and legalization where Ted caught lying loses his Harvard smooth speaking and starts stuttering as Bret smile. Bret caught Cruz telling a GIANT LIE

Add to that his hokey Christian minister persona Schtick and you have the Male version of Hillary.

He cheated nice Doc Carson, and his Pyrrhic victory over Trump where entry polls showed him losing is also proof Ted Millhouse Cruz is a win at anyone else’s expense candidate. May have well done phony coin toss like Hillary.

[Nifster]

Trump, like him or not, seems to have energized the electorate. More voters came out this time than ever before

[hollyweed]

Look I will vote for Trump if he is the nominee. He is actually my second favorite candidate but he lost Iowa.

[Zenjitsuman]

So if Trump wins the next 3 or 5 states and they give IOWA to Trump because of Ted’s fraud will you change your mind?

[newfreep]

Iowa caucus system is akin to having political speeches being made as you go into a voting booth.

The caucus system that is prone to voter fraud and voter intimidation not unlike Black Panthers patrolling voting precincts.

Iowa is meaningless...as history has shown.

[SmokingJoe]

Nonsense.
Ted Cruz has never polled near the top in liberal New Hampshire. He is currently polling near as well as he ever has. John Kasic, Chris Christie, Jeb Bush were all doing better than Ted Cruz at one time or then other. A third place finish in NH will be fine for him. However he could still finish second if he really goes for it. The email story and the Carson non story have had zero effect. No one is even talking about the email story anymore. If Ted Cruz kills it in tonight's debate, he will do better than his current third place in the polls. Remember, Ted Cruz had an unremarkable debate in Iowa, and still used his superior organization and ground game to finish far better his poll numbers and win Iowa.

[TornadoAlley3]

Rubio is rising sharply. He must be stopped. Kasich is going to come in ahead of Cruz. He too, must be stopped. Trump or Rubio 1st or 2nd. Kasich 3rd. Trump and Cruz need a great debate. My 2 cents.

[Zenjitsuman]

I like the secret ballot cast in the privacy behind the voting booth curtain

In my opinion Caucus opens up the process to Psych Ops, and persuasion based on knowingly false info.

Iowa needs to chuck the Caucus system, clean up its act by punishing wrongdoers

[SmokingJoe]

Iowa is meaningless...as history has shown

Presidents Bush and Barack Obama who both won Iowa on their way to the presidency say Hello! Meanwhile, John McCain who won New Hampshire in 2000, got clobbered by George Bush who won the nomination and the presidency.

[newfreep]

President Huckabee and President Santorum say “Hello” from the White House.

LOL - leftism is a mental disorder.
