If someone had done that to Cruz it would be a different song here.
CNN would never speculate that Cruz was suspending his campaign because Cruz wouldn't leave Iowa early and stop campaigning for a week to grab some fresh clothes.
And if someone were to tell caucus goers that Cruz was dropping out they would be laughed out of the room because the very idea is so absurd.
Fact is Carson's campaign did announce he was not going to New Hampshire or South Carolina. And as it turns out, Carson did not campaign or even bother to show up in New Hampshire until Saturday evening.
And now Cruz asks to talk to Carson in private, and Carson goes running to the press about it.
Carson is a fraud.
