Looks like my money boys are moving over to Ted Cruz. Maybe Teddy can take down the Trumpster. I know I couldn't. I'm low energy. I'm a joyous turtle.

Presidential candidate Ted Cruz today announced eight former national finance committee members of the Jeb Bush presidential campaign have joined the Cruz for President National Finance Committee.

Probably wanted Bernie Madoff to handle the money, but Bernie was unavailable. But Jeb’s people are good too, I suppose.

Did you have a live-in nanny?
It's baffling. He doesn't seem to understand the damage his "win at any cost" Iowa campaign did to his reputation. And now he's hiring Jeb's money guys? It's as if power and money are drugs he's become addicted to. He must think he can give up the money and being influenced any time he wants, that it's all for the greater good of his being elected.
Not Cruz that’s for sure.
He’s fighting like his life is on the line. He’s only 45; he’s really not ready for this, but could be in 8 years. The way he’s playing it, though, he’s not going to get that chance. Too bad.
Timothy Geithner is a Cruz finance team member now...or am I reading wrong
Does this include any of the Bush Family Saudi money?
Not only will we walk..... we’ll pull the D lever on every down ballot and kick every last R the hell out.
Never mind...I read wrong...it’s the Goldman Sachs revolving door list of people to Whitehouse
I will say this ..I WILL NOT reward any other candidate with my vote , for they have tried to destroy Trump ...I will write Trump in and we will all lose together if that’s how it has to be ...and every new voter that I got to the polls for the primary , will do the same ... this isn’t just me , it’s 90% of Trump voters
Hate Cruz!
But some please tell me where he can win a State?
[Campaign finance people are hired guns who work on commission or staggered bonus targets]
Paid campaign staff are beholden to no one but themselves. I am amazed how they can diss a candidate, then get behind that same candidate when offered a lucrative job opportunity.
This is how Cruz counters Trump’s Session announcement??
Huh?
