NYE SHOCK: Voters and Media “annoyed” by Cruz’s constant email spam for cash
Prtnly ^ | January 1, 2016 | Voltova Dmitri

Posted on 01/01/2016 3:10:26 PM PST by conservative98

Ted Cruz raked in massive profits by getting $5,000,000 from club for growth, a pro-Amnesty organization with ties to "globalist" causes, but that isn't enough. Ted Cruz now needs money from the people, and is sending spam emails to his followers (and non followers) via email for cash, often with threatening titles:

" ***CNN BREAKING NEWS: Hillary campaign raises over $100 Million***

This is the most critical, most important email I have ever sent you.

As I write you, CNN is breaking the news that Hillary Clinton's campaign has just passed the $100 Million dollar fundraising mark.

Jeb Bush passed the $100 Million mark months ago.

DMITRI, I'm fighting for my political life, and your response to this email will determine the success of this campaign and ultimately the future direction of our country for years to come.

I'm asking one last time: will you make a year-end gift to help me compete with Hillary and Jeb's hundreds of millions?" Political Guru of FOX News Todd Starnes reports on facebook to major laughs: Todd Starnes 8 mins ·

I think Ted Cruz is a very nice fellow. But he's gotta stop spamming us with campaign email. I've received nearly a dozen emails today -- 12 emails in one day!

And the subject lines are "EMERGENCY!" "HELP!" "BREAKING!"

Senator Cruz, do you have one of those Nigerian spammers working on your campaign staff?

Please, stop sir!

I have to agree. I contribute monthly to the Cruz campaign and have for nearly a year. Every day I get four or five emails asking me for more money! Plus, I get two or three phone calls a week from the campaign.

I am tired of this. What kind of campaign are they running that they have to offend their supporters?

“BTW, I’m not the only Cruz bundler at Free Republic. Ref. Post 53”

Who are the others?

Have you been asleep since March? I’ve been very open on numerous threads about bundling for Cruz. You missed it though, is that it?

This article is part of a “Concern Troll” campaign.

Sure. It’s like a disclaimer that you put on every anti-Trump article you posted. You are corrupt.

I disagree with you about Cruz being candid and trusting. He put it on the internet in that form so that his PACs could use it in ads on his behalf. That act is trying to skirt campaign finance law and is sleazy.

Not so. The link you referred me to ( http://www.mediaite.com/tv/ted-cruz-campaign-posted-hours-of-raw-awkward-ad-footage-on-youtube/ ) makes it clear that Cruz is being uniquely forthright among the candidates:

'But while other campaigns have posted highly-produced clips of B-Roll,' notes Moody, 'Cruz`s version is raw and largely uncut.'

"I'm sorry to hear that. For what it's worth, I'll bring it up at the next conference call strategy meeting."

Would you let us know if you get an update on this issue.

Either there is a lack of coordination by the Cruz team, or there is a false flag campaign to annoy voters.

m on the list plenty, myself. I have gotten more than one copy of this e-mail.

The fellow who wrote the piece omitted the end of the e-mail:

A Trump supporter just pinged me with a remark about Ted’s email list, so in honor of the Trumpster I hopped over to the Cruz site and made another donation.
*******************************************************************************
If it’s not too long after payday, I hop over to the Cruz site myself to make another small donation when I’ve seen too much anti-Cruz jihadi activity to suit me.

Trump - the ONLY candidate NOT owned by amnesty supporting donors/PACs.

Love it!!
*******************************************************************************
Actually, Ted Cruz is “owned” by an army of Patriotic American constitutional conservatives who make small donations when they can affort to do that. And, guess what, we small donors not only are NOT “amnesty supporting” but are very much opposed to Amnesty as is Ted Cruz.

You are failing to understand the reason they were posted in the first place.

Cruz and/or his campaign posted the raw footage on the internet so that his pacs could use it in ads for him.

Since it is against campaign finance law for the campaign or Cruz to communicate with the pacs this is their way of getting around the law.

Cruz films subject matter that could be edited to use in ads, posts the raw footage on the internet, the pac or pacs then go tho the internet, pick up the footage, edit it, and put together ads they will use to the benefit of the Cruz campaign.

Like I said, I’m sure the other campaigns with pacs do the same thing but the reason it is done is to get around the law.

I know that doesn’t fit with the squeaky clean image some have about Cruz but there is no other reason for him to have done it unless he just likes having unflattering video of himself and his family posted on the internet for anyone to pick up and use.

“Creeps you out”, does it. I do believe that has become one of the standard lines amongst the anti-Cruz jihadists who appear here. Way to be here Mr “nopardons”.

Reno,

Why don’t you disclose YOUR affilation.

You have only a handful of posts prior to October 2015, and most of your posts are character attacks on Cruz, the only conservative running.

You are an agent for Soros, Hillary or the GOPe.

Well, Cruz’s largest donors (Mercer, CFG) are amnesty supporters.

Go ahead and keep sending your hard earned $$, though....I could care less.

Since you are affiliated, even if a bit indirect, don’t you think for transparency that you should be disclosing that?! It sure explains your Cruz fanaticism on FR and I have to say this is the FIRST TIME I have seen you mention this bit of critical information. Your tag line or every comment should come with (1) that critical disclosure and (2) whether what you are writing is or is not endorsed or approved by the campaign. Anything less is deceptive and likely violates the letter or spirit of FEC and FTC guidelines.
*******************************************************************************
“...Anything less is deceptive and likely violates the letter or spirit of FEC and FTC guidelines....” Oooooo....SCARY. Are you with the government? Do you dream of bring down the force of government agencies on the heads of constitutional conservatives? Do you dream of getting the real names and SSNs of FReepers who support constitutional conservatism so you can give the information to your friends at the IRS?

By the way, earlier today I sent off another small donation to the Cruz campaign. Should I DISCLOSE THAT to someone here?
