I’m trying to find an instance where a candidate used the terms “VIOLATION” and “there will be follow up” in their fliers. THAT smacks of intimidation.

People may be motivated to caucus alright,,but it may be for a candidate other than Cruz.

I’d be kinda mad if I got that in the mail.

I tried so hard to like him but I just can’t.

Another Tea Party Supastah like Rubio.

“Like the recipient has violated some sort of law”

and there may be ‘follow up’ - as if some consequence will result..

Wow. Ted’s doubling down on an error that wasn’t simply stupid - it was demeaning and insulting, as well.

I gotta tell you - he’s pinning my Shockometer nearly every day now.

“Then you must really love George Soros.”

Because I said wealthy people are good judges of character I like Soros? Logic isn’t your strong suit. Stick to personal insults like “Your mother wears combat boots.”

It’s a panoramic shot. You can do from almost any smart phone. The software stitches the images together automatically as you pan the camera.

You're really a rather pathetic, stupid, little git. Trump's personal life has been well known for many decades; unlike Teddy's, who is more like Obama than you are willing to admit.

Whilst I'm drinking champagne, I suggest a cup of hemlock for you come Tuesday.

Yeah, I noticed that, too. We’ll report on you and your neighbors again.

Wow, what a bad idea.

“There appears to have been NO response or acknowledgement of this theme by the Cruz campaign.”

That’s incorrect. Try again. Cruz’s Communications Director took responsibility for this. His name is Rick Tyler. Google it.

It’s amazing how you Cruzbots stick your heads in the sand when it comes to your dishonest, creepy, candidate and try to turn the message back on Trump. This thread is about Cruz - got it???? It’s like a little kid who gets caught doing something and tries to point the finger at someone else - look what he/she did. Grow up!

Good grief! Ted Cruz has NOTHING to apologize for! He’s done nothing that many others—Republicans—haven’t done before in Iowa. I’m astonished at the “bizarreness” going on here on Free Republic. JimRob is, too, as his post said when he called for us to STOP tearing each other apart over this Trump/Cruz rivalry.

Ted Cruz is a conservative. While I like Mr. Trump okay and attended his awesome rally here (how can you NOT like him?), the fact remains that he is a largely unknown factor, because of his past liberalism and coziness with Democrats, but it’s also stupid to be ripping into the one verifiable Christian conservative in this race—Ted Cruz.

Okay, let the frenzied flaming begin. I don’t give a rip. I’m in Facebook “jail” right now for telling the truth about Islam, so I already have a bad attitude.

And I think Cruz Campaign would have avoided the creepy factor if they had limited the mailer to just the name of the addressee, such as: Hi, I’m Ted Cruz and looking through public records we found you have not participated in the republican caucus in the last (BLANK) years. I invite you to come to (LOCATION) and caucus for me to help turn around this country. I am asking for your support...blah, blah, blah...

Could even address the envelope with IMPORTANT CAUCUS INFORMATION or some such bilge. I am sorry. I said it multiple times last night on the all nighter thread and I will say it again. Someone in the Cruz Campaign stepped on their wanger.

>>Remove that blindfold, earplugs, and tinfoil bodysuit and hat. You’re delusional, dazed, and stupid.

Other than that, how do you really feel? : )

Seriously, you have a remarkable gift for speaking your mind clearly and succintly.

I’m glad we’re on the same Team!

Says the child. I’ll talk about any candidate I choose to on any thread I want to and there isn’t anything you can do about it. Trump may think he can push people around but he can’t and you certainly can’t.

If Trump wins, I’m going to sit back and laugh at you losers, you will deserve it.

I am just wondering, if you can give us an example of a previous flier used that told they voter they were in ‘VIOLATION’ and records are being kept on their votes and ‘follow up’ may be necessary.

Can you show us a time when the follow up threat was in any flier?
