I hear that ad in Minneapolis on the same radio station which carries Rush Limbaugh.

Speaking of Rush, have you heard that Cruz ad with the excerpt from Rush's show, where he went on and on about what a Reagan conservative Ted is?

I don't know how they're using that clip of Rush, unless Rush himself approved it.

It's the very first time I can remember any presidential candidate using a clip of Rush in a campaign ad. It says to me that Rush is tacitly endorsing Cruz for the nomination - something he's always sworn he'd never do.

Crap, you're right: except that I don't think it was Rush on his own show, and not during campaign season: I think it was from a few years ago, of Rush being interviewed by some other show: so that other show would have distribution rights.

Interesting point, though.

The use of a snippet from Rush’s broadcast is probably covered under fair use. Like using a quote from an editorial in the paper.

Not a lawyer, so I don’t know.
