"Cruz says he won't apologize to anyone for the mailers - encouraging people to caucus"

That's not good; does Cruz not realize that both the Iowa and national media are going to tear him to pieces over this?

Sorry Ted. The big brother condescension in your mailer is now something you own.

And for anyone to say “other campaigns have done it” is quite similar to Nuremburg when guards routinely said “I was just following orders”.

Voters know if something feels horribly wrong, and that mailer was the final straw.

The fact that Cruz is responding to it is not a good sign for Cruz.

If Trump had done this, I can only imagine the outrage and vitriol that would fill this forum.

Honestly, not thrilled with this. It may work but it is not a tactic that he should have used. Dissapointed.

So the narrative has shifted throughout the day.

First, it had to be a dirty trick by another campaign to make Cruz look bad.

Once it turned out that it *was* done by Cruz’s campaign, it changed to: This had to be done by a low-level staffer and Cruz had NO idea that this was going on.

In my mind:

1. If Cruz knew, it makes one question his judgement.
2. If Cruz didn’t know, it makes one question his leadership.

Turns out that Cruz DID know and he sees nothing wrong with what he did...

Got it.
