It’s up to the donors to push the PACS to do their jobs and to forget the hefty commissions.

I’m sure Politico is only thinking of Ted’s best interests /sarc.

If they can goad the PACs into spending all their money now they’re hoping they won’t have any funds when they’re really needed.

It isn’t the donors who are worried it’s the leftwing hacks like Politics who are. They see Cruz gaining in the polls without burning through campaign cash and realize that money can be spent later against the Den nnominee.

Is it possible Trump has provoked second thoughts about the use of superpacs?

Of all the other candidates, Cruz is by far the most astute, and it should be easy for him to see how he will be on the losing side of a powerful argument about what Cruz owes to the open borders plutocrats.

Perhaps he has already agreed with Donald that he will be his VP and no need to spend on TV ads.

1st primary is Monday, February 1, let people get past the holidays before hitting them with ads. How many will be paying attention between Thanksgiving and New Years? Save the money, then hit them when they will be paying attention. Cruz right now is working the media for free exposure in his own way, following the Trump model.

The same media that decries all this "big money corrupting the process" freak out when the money isn't coming their way. Remember folks, money spent on commercials goes straight into the pockets of those trying to destroy this nation.

We've seen similar whining about the fact that Trump isn't spending money the way they want.

He’s got a GREAT ground game, though. Ted stopped in GA a few times recently. And his dad was just here last week. Heidi will be herein Nov. as well.
