Greta Van Susteren went off on the Cruz Campaign tonight over their handling of the Ben Carson Caucus scandal.
On Monday Dr. Ben Carson accused the Cruz camp of foul play in the Iowa Caucuses.
Carson said the Cruz camp told voters Carson was dropping out and to support Ted Cruz.
Carson was right to be outraged...
The Cruz camp sent out messages and made calls to all precinct captains that Dr. Carson was dropping from the race.
On Thursday Greta Van Susteren reacted to the Cruz campaign scandal.
Greta Van Susteren: Horrible!... This is appalling!
For some reason to me, what happened that night was terrible. But then when they have time for reflection they make it even worse with this statement tonight. It's just appalling.
Karl Rove: They're circling the wagons. They know they made a big error. They're trying to change the subject and they're circling the wagons.
Greta Van Susteren: Then don't tell me that Senator Cruz apologized! Because all he does is try to make Carson wrong in this whole statement and Carson didn't do anything wrong. It's just completely ridiculous to say Senator Cruz apologized. They got caught. Now they got double caught. This is horrible and shame on the Cruz campaign!
I agree but it is still what professional politicians do. Cruz tries to act like he is an outsider but he is a career politician through and through. He has spent most of his adult life doing politics and he has been very successful at it. This is pretty mild compared to some of the stuff other pros pull.
I'm a die hard Trump supporter...If he lies to get a one up on someone I'll drop him like a hot potatoe...
Read your candidate's immigration platform carefully. It doesn't say a thing about what he intends to do with the 40 million invaders who are already here. He can't, because he's owned by G-S and the Cheap Labor Express treason lobby.
Windy, you hit that nail on the head!
Plus, the reapplication process will weed out the criminals, and allow those already in line to be processed first.
I would guess that less then 5% would be able to come back
Think about it
If they are on welfare, section 8, food stamps, etc, they are not coming back, they have no valid reason to come here. Fixing illegal immigration fixes many other issues, illegal drugs, crime, rising health care costs, rising public school costs, public assistance costs
That is why what Trump is saying is really important. If he fixes that, he fixes a dozen other problems as well. And he knows that.
Trump staff lied to everyone...They claimed Carson had a big announcement he was going to break (that was a lie) and they said Carson was no longer going to campaign (that was a lie)...And because Carson was no longer campaigning and he was going to make a big announcement his supporters should throw in with Cruz...Count 'em...That's 2 of them...2 lies...
If Trump did a single dirty trick in Iowa, Cruz heads would lose their minds with rage. We would hear about how he’s bringing Democrat tactics.
Well, the mailers have been done before by MoveOn dot org. Cruz knew he couldn’t win honestly.

You clearly have not not read my post, or is it paranoia, a Bernie win guarantees a victory by a Republican in the general. Your kind of thinking is what gives me so little confidence the Republicans will ever again win the Presidency. Yes, I know what a copy and past post looks like, I am copying and pasting my own post in an attempt to educated people like you. Everything I have posted is my well thought out original, so instead of directly attacking me, use your brain and counter it.
But you'll show up for Rubio or Bush or Kasich, the GOPe...Apparently you like illegal immigration, terrorists flooding our country, getting screwed by other countries in unfair trade deals, giving up our identity as the Unites States of America for the New World Order...
If you think that for one minute Trump is going to change any of the aforementioned problems, I have a bridge to sell you...that goes nowhere.
I’m not impressed with Rubio, no more Bushes and I live in Ohio -— Kasich is a fraud.
I’ll vote for Cruz...in the primary and will write him in on my general ballot if his name is not at the top of the list.
BTW....God is in control. Not you, not me, not the NWO nor anyone else you might believe to be in “control.”
The whole world KNOWS.... CRUZ CHEATED IN IOWA.
How do you think that’s going to play out in future elections like New Hampshire and South Carolina?
Do you think it’s win Cruz more votes because everyone loves a cheater???
Don’t you?
In your very short history here, you’ve done nothing but hype Bernie.
Troll posting history:
http://www.freerepublic.com/tag/by:quigleydu/index?tab=comments;brevity=full;options=no-change
Many of your comments about “Bernie†contain the tell tale symbol marks that say “copy and paste†Copying directly from dummy underground.
It’s remarkable the supposedly most Godly among the bunch support lying, cheating and stealing. You’re a great example.
No. Not any more than Cruz really believes that Trump wanted to bulldoze the old lady’s house, or got rich off Eminent Domain.
But Trump did want to bulldoze the house. “It’s ugly.”
Trump loves Eminent Domain......he even wanted the city to remove homeless veterans from the front steps of his hotel.
Trump is a chump. He is Obama 2.0. I refuse to drink the kool-aid.
Carson is the root cause because of the very weird and misunderstood ‘fresh clothes’ thing.
After that, the Chris Moody tweet started the chain reaction.
Cruz is in the clear on this.
I’m a Cruz supporter, and I don’t see anything wrong with what he did. If Carson didn’t want it to happen, then maybe Carson whouldn’t take breaks in campaigning. But Carson DOES take breaks - long ones:
October 2015 -
“Republican presidential contender Dr. Ben Carson has put his public campaign events on hold for two more weeks to go on book tour for his new tome “A More Perfect Union” and catch up on fundraising events...
...The campaign says the next time they will appear publicly with Carson will be the day of the next GOP debate on Oct. 28. His last public campaign event was Oct. 2.”

A candidate who takes a month off of campaigning cannot get his panties in a wad if others notice his lack of seriousness.
Doubt that.
Especially after Carson just admitted that CNN story could have misled people that he was dropping out.
