I agree... “Well I read it on the internet so it must be true” Seriously Americans have clearly lost all of their critical thinking skills.

Carson and now this and yet CNN is involved again.
If it were a staffer for Rubio why does CNN not release the name or was it a person claiming to be with Rubio trying to get Rubio votes?

Rubio’s campaign was DOA at the start. The GOP electorate is not in the mood for an anti-American amnesty whore.

I just heard that Neil Bush, Jeb’s brother, has joined Cruz’s financial team. Some outsider huh? We’ve tried to warn people that Cruz is a fake, phony, fraud and not an outsider. They keep their blinders on, and continue to believe this Elmer “Gantry.

When will our media go back to investigating & discovering the truth instead of just promoting salacious stories? All they do is promote discord than to offer facts - who, what, when, where, why. Pretty sad.

If true this is very bad for Cruz’s propensity for truth and veracity.

From the article ...suggesting that he might leave the race before the March 15 primary in Florida.

Talk about rumors and innuendo! The rumor is that Cruz is rumor mongering, is the rumor. The innuendo that Rubio might, repeat might, drop out is valid, but don't let that stop your smearing Cruz so Trump can be worshiped by all the plebs.

I received the email from Cruz this morning in Hawaii.

Apparently not...

"The at-issue email and social media posting was not sanctioned by the Cruz for President campaign," said Alice Stewart, a spokeswoman for Mr. Cruz. "The campaign became aware of the email this morning by press accounts, and upon investigation learned that some volunteers in Hawaii were involved in the posting."

So is the Trump campaign and Trump himself personally responsible for everything posted on this forum by one of his supporters? Or is it possible that some supporters will post or send some things that the campaign might not like?

Oh, pish posh. It’s any easy charge to make by Rubio. It’s like a Judo move. Rubio is simply trying to use previous allegations against Cruz to his advantage, nothing more.

Time to pack it in Marco. It’s over.

IF aliens are real it would be really great.

As long as were going with hypotheticals we might as well shoot for the moon.

Cruz has no principles. He is just an opportunist deeply dependent on the donor puppeteers. Go Trump.
