DORCHESTER, S.C. - Responding to a report that said he did not disclose a loan from his wife's employer during his 2012 U.S. Senate campaign, Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz called the issue a "technical and inadvertent filing error" that he will fix if necessary.

Yes, it was a margin loan: https://twitter.com/MattMackowiak/status/687471659423371264

No he didnt.

Ok, that’s a funny subject line: “Ted Cruz (R-Goldman Sachs)” ... from Santorum campaign.

“Ted Cruz was literally brought to you by Goldman Sachs.”

Are Trump supporters really using Jennifer Rubin to back up their points?

One million in loans is over looked? That is a lot of $ to forget about.

A $500K margin loan taken out against an equity and/or bond holding is not that big a deal and doesn't required anything more than writing a check from the account. As of mid-year 2013, he was estimated to be worth $1.5m, so he had substantial assets some of which may have been in the form of marketable securities he wanted to avoid selling.

Looks like @TedCruz’s U.S. Senate campaign was financed by Goldman Sachs and Citibank. Literally. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/01/14/us/politics/ted-cruz-wall-street-loan-senate-bid-2012.html?emc=edit_na_20160113&nlid=9150854&ref=cta …

As if you ever considered supporting Cruz. Don’t make us all laugh.

I don’t know about you but I’m calling Goldman Sachs tomorrow. I can help TPP to....

Algore said "no controlling legal authority"
Jefferson Blythe said "depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is"
Barky said "if you want your doctor, you can keep your doctor"
Nancy Pleuresy said "you have to pass it to know what's in it"
Cankels said "what difference does it make?"
The Perfect Conservative "called the issue a 'technical and inadvertent filing error' "


I report. You decide.

What’s a Santorum?

[napscoordinator]

I never said I do. Please change those glasses please.

[RC one]

It is if you want to be POTUS.

[TornadoAlley3]

But on finance disclosure is it a problem he did not reveal it?

[montag813]

Should read:

Cruz: I shouldn't have lied to Texas voters and told them the $500,000 I added to the campaign coffers was "the last of my savings," when it was in fact from Goldman Sachs, my wife's employer, and Barack Obama's #1 corporate donor.

Heidi Cruz, can I be your friend?

[MinuteGal]

Sounds like the money-laundering Clinton Foundation flunkies now hastening to correct multi-million dollar "errors" on prior income tax return reportings.

Oh, yeah....
