Today in Indiana Carly Fiorina represented the visible metaphor for the Ted Cruz campaign when she literally fell off the stage – and Ted Cruz ignored her distress.
You can’t make this stuff up folks:

Once she saw him enter the room, she was “slain in the spirit”.
The gal wearing pink, lol. That’s Heidi Cruz.
It appeared SS got to her and escorted her out.
It would have made for a great photo op.
He blew it big time.
Now he has the exact opposite of a great photo op.
I sure hope Trump delivers the knock out blow this Tuesday.
I disagree. He turned his head away just before she fell. She fell quickly and quietly. How many other people standing around Carly even flinched when she fell, and they saw it for sure ?
Peripheral vision and hearing would insure Cruz was aware of the incident. He chose to ignore her, plain and simple.
I agree. He was shaking a hand then turned back towards where Carly had been. Surely there was some noise and movement that drew his attention enough for him to be aware that something had happened. He did then go ahead as if nothing was wrong. Again, I don't know what he could have done to help. No one else helped either, except Heidi, and then a SS guard came rushing over to help her up.
As a Trump supporter, I do not think that Cruz say iCarly fall. Heidi Cruz saw her on the ground and bent down for a second then stood up and continued waving. I hope iCarly is fine, but darn it...it is funny...there one moment and gone the next...
When a horse breaks a leg, it’s not good.
LOL
“Some years back the Republican nominee fell off the platform when a railing gave way—was it Dole or McCain”
It was Bob Dole in 1996 running against Clinton. Bob Dole is partially disabled as a result of war injuries.
Someone sabotaged the railing and removed the screws. When Dole grabbed the railing it gave way and Dole fell off the stage.
None of the reporters or photographers standing next to Dole tried to help him. The photographers kept taking pictures.
Ted isn’t that smart. He thinks 100% of the time about himself. NOTHING else.
Heidi at least pretended to try to help Snarley. :-)
I’ve kept off these threads on purpose.
However, it is obvious to me and any one here who still has a heart that Ted Cruz did not see it. Heidi Cruz did and spoke to Carly Fiorina. At the same time it looks like security was there and helped Carly off. Heidi must have gotten an “I’m ok” to go back to the hand shaking.
My BS meter is so high regarding anything “sundance” or Jim Hoft posts that I usually ignore it.
If this is the state we are in then leave me out. If you are honest this was nothing more than someone falling. It is not the criminal offense some people are making of it. It shows much more of the commentators character than Mr. Cruz’s character.

It’s like watching the opening of Get Smart!

Was there a longer vid showing SS escorting her out? I haven’t been able to find anything else on this, anywhere. Hope she’s okay. Wonder what happened? Collapse? Trap door?
That’s from last year....when the stage collapsed and curtains fell on Carly. She existed the race, soon after.
