News Busters ^ | February 4, 2016 | Geoffrey Dickens

For the liberal media, there might not be a greater hate object than Texas Senator Ted Cruz. The consistent conservative’s win in Iowa and rise in the polls will probably mean even more heightened attacks from journalists. Which would be remarkable, given liberals in the chattering class have already compared him to Nazis, the KKK and even pointed a figurative gun to his head.

“...he would be fending off so many hate-filled personal attacks from such a large chunk of conservatives who have surrendered their collective brains to Donald Trump.”

He isn’t, because they aren’t conservatives!

“Both Drudge and Breitbart are sitting on Cruz ‘bombshells’”

Yeah I heard it’s something to the effect that 4 companies he controlled had to file bankruptcy and he cheated on his wife.

As the Trumpeteers are wont to say; Cruz is Toast

Ben Carson’s entire NH super PAC staff quit and joined Ted Cruz’s campaign.

Maybe that’s because Cruz didn’t in fact employ “gutter politics” against Ben Carson.

Why would Carson’s people join Cruz if Cruz was unprincipled and dirty?

“Ben Carson’s entire NH super PAC staff quit and joined Ted Cruz’s campaign.”

Do you understand super PAC people are NOT campaign people??

SuperPACs are legally required to be separate from campaigns. SuperPAC people are legally required to be separate form campaign people.

Cruz’s puppet strings looked stronger.

As for Ted’s gutter politics;

The attacks of Trump and his his Cruz-hating supporters aren't much better, always assuming the worst, most malevolent intentions. Talk about the politics of personal destruction!

That's right, Gigi, turn it around from Post 1 and fire inside the circle, doing the same thing you accuse others of, when the article itself was about attacks from the Democrats. Never miss an opportunity to disregard JimRob's plea to stop the intraparty attacks on FR.
