Spox said ‘narrow’, so it’s likely not many people, it may be as innocuous as the marketing company testing the tactic on low turnout areas. Or it could be sabotage. But whoever said ‘print ‘em!’ on the mailing never cleared it with the campaign’s top leadership, that much is obvious.

BS, the the Cruz campaign manager admitted doing it.

Conservatives take responsibility for what they do. narrow, my azz. It was the whole state of Iowa.

It's obvious that it was Cruz's idea to put out this mailer, overruling his campaign staff who argued against it.

Or anyway, that is just as "obvious" as your speculation.

Do you not understand how social media works? One angry and disgusted voter posts this to their 200 followers. Half of them retweet it to their 200 followers. It hits a blogger in Austin, who tweets about it to their 1000 followers. A small press outlet writes an article.

Less than 24 hours later CNN has the Secretary of State on record about it.

By tonight, it will be a topic of discussion for the talking heads and there will be spots on local news stations featuring pissed off Iowa voters and their neighbors.

If you go through the threads from last night, we tried to tell you this was an epic mistake. No one believed it.
