Windham, New Hampshire (CNN)The day after winning the Iowa caucuses, Ted Cruz issued an apology to Republican rival Ben Carson for falsely telling Iowa caucusgoers that the retired neurosurgeon planned to quit the race, calling it a "mistake."
Cruz said in a statement Tuesday that his campaign staff saw a CNN report that Carson was dropping out, although CNN had not characterized Carson's actions that way.
"Last night when our political team saw the CNN post saying that Dr. Carson was not carrying on to New Hampshire and South Carolina, our campaign updated grassroots leaders just as we would with any breaking news story," Cruz said in a statement first shared with CNN. "That's fair game. What the team then should have done was send around the follow-up statement from the Carson campaign clarifying that he was indeed staying in the race when that came out."

The mob does not care. They are zombies.
"I am so sorry I stole your voters and won the Iowa primary" says Ted Cruz with his fingers crossed behind his back.
Cruz is a slime ball.
Cruz is the dirtiest US politician since LBJ. Cruz values are lie lie lie deny and if that does not work flip flop.
The ease with which Cruz and his supporter lie is troubling. Trump father loaned Trump 1 million dollars in 1970. Trump was a billioniare in the 1980s. Trumps father died in 1999. You like your candidate are a liar.
Wow!!! After listening to Carson, talk about the Cruz lie, I’m starting to see some fire in Ben Carson!!!! Cruz messed-up big!

He reminds me very much of LBJ.
Oddly enough, searching that text reveals it has only been posted by you on Free Republic. No place else, ever, in the entire history of mankind.
Did we lie just a little bit, hmmmm?
Hell no, I love money.
I’d wager I’d make 40 billion with seed capital of 500MM. Lend me it and we’ll figure out if I’m right. :-)
A petulant man-child.
A man that does not take himself too serious. I love this selective outrage.
What kind of man tries to deny what he did afterward....yes a childish narcissist. Dont take my word for it...look at what his own wives have said:
“The little boy that still wants attention”Â, said Marla Maples, his second wife.
“He wants to be noticed,” said Ivana Trump, wife No. 1, who recalled sending him into a fit of rage by skiing past him on a hill in Aspen, Colo. Mr. Trump stopped, took off his skis and walked off the trail. “He could not take it, that I could do something better than he did,” she said.
