What utter b.s.! The presumption of this 'Cruz cheated meme' is that Carson supporters are such mindless robots that they can be conned out of their votes by the first fast-talking Cruz supporter they meet. Didn't the Carson supporters have their own smartphones? If you walk into caucus as a gung-ho Carson supporter, and someone tells you that your man is dropping out, how hard would it have been to whip out your phone and run a Google search?

This is the most pathetic, sore-loser story that I've ever heard. We're into Al Gore territory here.

Irish: It is IRRELEVANT what we think. Ted Cruz ACTUALLY DID issue an apology. I can provide the link if you like.

When it comes out of the mouth of someone who is billed as a ‘principled Christian’, I’m sure there were enough people that would not doubt his word at the time. I’m sure they have learned their lesson now though.

I would love to hear from one Carson supporter that he/she received the tweet of a Cruz campaign operative, and then responded by giving up.

Your are 100% correct to call BS.

I do not believe that that Carson supporters could be that stupid. They knew it was a Cruz supporter talking.

Oh, I am a Cruz supporter.

Remember that Rubio and Cruz were highest for second choice, so if your first choice was Carson and you are told by someone you had no reason to disbelieve that Carson is planning to suspend his campaign you would most likely go for your second choice. And if I recall correctly, Cruz was highest among Carson’s supporters second choice. At the very least it makes the election outcome questionable. It doesn’t take much to dramatically change the result, a classic example was in 2000 when Fox “mistakenly” called Florida fo Gore an hour before polls closed.

Seasoned salespeople do this for a living every day, and they make a living at it. Using disinformation is die genius and especially egregious for someone who professes to be a Christian, which is what I think upset Dr. Carson the most about Senator Cruz, and ostensibly why Cruz apologized.
