WP ^ | J. Rubin

Not surprisingly, anything from Rubin is pure establishment trash.

GO TED!

‘Right’ and “J. Rubin’ simply do not belong in the same sentence together.

If the donald brings it up in the debate, the response should simply be:

"My father unlike yours didn't have a spare million dollars to lend me"

So you’re in bed with and in an alliance with the ultra-liberal Washington Post now as they pump out their FUD. That’s pretty pathetic, IMHO.

She is psycho.

If you are now looking to her, you gave gone off the rails.

You don’t understand this is as much part of the attack to bring down Trump as well as Cruz.

Until now I have not seen the GOPe being able to get any traction.

Now us the first time I gave noticed they may not be dead.

Some who should know better seem to be falling in to the GOPe snare.

One could come back with “Well it seems you wife’s employer did”.

Really tells alot about the broken compass of Trumphumpers who need to scour the bowels of the establishment and leftist toilet bowls like Slate, or NYT, or Jen Rubin to attack a terrific conservative like Ted. Tells us how strong Cruz really is and how much of Trumps support are simply Hillary voters in wait.

Election law stipulates that if you get a loan for the purpose of funding a campaign, you have to show the original source of the loan, the terms of the loan and you have to provide a copy of the loan document to the FEC.

Cruz said recently he filed the loan info elsewhere, including on the form being brandished about when he was caught w/ his pants down (posted elsewhere).

How convenient for Cruz. The loan was disclosed sub rosa ....not where it would have been noticed.....and questioned by Texas voters.

The Ivy League lawyer/s story keeps changing....he also says he forget to declare the $million dollar loan from a powerhouse Wall Street firm that employs his wife. And that his strange excuse for this lapse is that his opponent was spending millions.

IOW, he/s a victim....it was somebody else/s fault.

Not something conservatives like to see in a presidential campaign.

His birthplace, his parentage, his ethnicity, the million dollar loan, flip-flopping on illegal issues. Makes you wonder what else he/s jerked around or falsified.

His political ambitions seem to outweigh everything....that IS problematic.

Too bad he did not take this loan from the Doobleville Savings and Loan.

Just the name Goldman Sachs on this story is going to drive all Tea Party populist voters away.

Rubin hates Cruz. Another nothing-burger from 4 years ago.

Cruz could just ask “what difference at this point does it make?”
