I don’t think Ted is actually leaving the race. I think he is playing with words here in order to promote last minute donations. I think he’s saying the campaign is ‘dropping’ about $200,000. short of their fundraising goal to be reported on Wednesday. If this is what’s going on, as much as I like Ted, I don’t like this tactic of using tabloid like, panic inducing headlines.

I made a small donation to Cruz's campaign when he announced. Nobody called me or cajoled me. Now, it's not that way. Last call I got from the campaign, I asked the phone person if she was a volunteer or paid staff. He's using paid staff. So I figure the campaign has spent more on me than I originally donated, considering all the calls and letters.

Yeah, I know everyone does it. I was hoping for a different kind of campaign from Cruz. You know what? Somebody came along and gave me a different kind of campaign.

I get Ted’s emails. Its the Sun Times enducing panic. And the Sun Times depends on people reading that headline and believing Ted is dropping out.
