There are two pictures! one is taken from the podium looking down the main aisle, and the second is taken looking toward the place where the first pic was taken. Look at the carpet stripe. Also, they were taken at different times becaie tje taped off seats are filled in the second pic. My Two cents.

This is so interesting to me. I’ve voted in every election since I was 18. That’s been a few, ahem, elections over the years.

I’m not in Iowa, Minnesota actually, but I wonder if I would get an A+ for voting.

And no, I’ve never voted for a Democrat or someone named Jesse Ventura.

I don’t see this being a good thing for Cruz.

” His Iowa guy was not slouch to get Santorum from blank to winner in 2012.”

That’s right, I forgot Trump hired the same guy that worked it for Santorum.

Exactly. The guy is taking public record information and using it to try and persuade people to vote.

Anyone can do this.

Argue with the method, I s’pose, but let’s not get our panties in a bunch over a piece of yellow paper with a red box on it. Please.

Cruz has doubled down on stupid I was going to say that to you.

Hopefully, about him.

When Albert Einstein died, he met three New Zealanders in the queue outside the Pearly Gates. To pass the time, he asked what were their IQs. The first replied 190. "Wonderful," exclaimed Einstein. "We can discuss the contribution made by Ernest Rutherford to atomic physics and my theory of general relativity". The second answered 150. "Good," said Einstein. "I look forward to discussing the role of New Zealand's nuclear-free legislation in the quest for world peace". The third New Zealander mumbled 50. Einstein paused, and then asked, "So what is your forecast for the budget deficit next year?"

"Guess what? Ted is a mere politician."

And Trust Fund Donnie is a mere Bernie-Madoff style conman leftist.

I'll take the "mere politician."

Your post me double check my comment on post #2.

It is both a shame and very poor judgement on both Cruz and his campaign staff to use this tactic. The true affects of this will be seen Monday night.

It's a panoramic shot. Notice how the back wall seems to curve.

Covenantor,PjBankard are both correct. Notice the non-paroranmic photo of the room just posted on Cruz's Twitter of the same scene.

So I stand corrected and it's a good crowd.   Good eye you guys.

I can’t either. And I never saw him defending it.

Funny how they said Trump didn’t want to win, and now Ted is the one acting like this. Strange.

I did not find that as offensive. it doesn’t look to mimic an official communication. The message is more clear. The Cruz mailer looks like its trying to be official , but it isn’t.

If calling a conman leftist a conman leftist gets me “purged”....well, my life will somehow go on.

I have more confidence in Mr. Robinson than that.

Re>I am perhaps the most loyal Ted Cruz supporter at Free Republic

Well your heart was in the right place and your smart enough to see when you are being duped. Many here are blind.

Whatever.

“Ted Cruz has NOTHING to apologize for! He’s done nothing that many others-Republicans-haven’t done before in Iowa.”

So in your mind, since this disgraceful tactic has been used before, it’s o.k. for Cruz to use it? The fact that “Republicans” have used it before simply lets you know that they, like the RATs, don’t give a crap about decency (or shall we say “conservative values”). I mean it’s just all about winning isn’t it? so if you scare the $hit out of some seniors, what the hell, it’s for the “good” of the party right? There’s a VIOLATION here alright, a VIOLATION of decency, if not the law!

Cruz must have studied how to campaign from Slick WIlly. What will Cruz do next? Hire Livingston?

What’s the threat? That one’s F grade in voting won’t change? Terrifying!

The over-reaction and hypocrisy is incredible.
