No the problem is Ted, which is why the polls like like this;

The Marco Rubio campaign is livid Thursday after the Ted Cruz campaign released a website that includes a photoshopped image of their candidate shaking hands with President Barack Obama.
Cruz’s website “The Real Rubio Record” ironically features a very unreal image of Rubio smiling ecstatically while shaking Obama’s hand. “The Rubio-Obama Trade Pact” the text ominously reads, a reference to Rubio’s support for the Trans-Pacific Partnership. The Cruz website also features a photoshopped image of Rubio smiling while leaning on a business sign reading “Closed.”
Among the red flags that the image is fake… who shakes with their left hand? Certainly not the right-handed Rubio.
The Rubio campaign was predictably less than amused. “This is how phony and deceitful the Cruz campaign has become,” Rubio advisor Todd Harris told a gaggle of reporters in South Carolina, while holding up the image in question.
The pushback comes after Cruz faced criticism for what his opponents termed “dirty tricks” in Iowa. In particular, Cruz was criticized for pointing out an official-looking flyer telling voters they faced a “voter violation” unless they voted for him, and for telling supporters to spread a rumor that Ben Carson was dropping out of the race.
UPDATE (11:13 AM): The Cruz campaign doubled down, telling CNN that they believe the image is authentic.

This was at the State of the Union .....
The Cruz Camp KNEW THAT, and this is why they did not run with THIS photo.
Pathetic attempt to justify Cruz Camp’s dirty tricks.
All you have is ad hominem?? You need to make it about me??
Read posts 107 and 120.
Yes but this is the State of the Union. Hence, why the Cruz Camp never ran with THIS photo..... They knew they would be laughed at.
INSTEAD..., The Cruz Camp came up with a fake photo. To act like Rubio and Obama are personally scheming.
It’s just more dirty tricks from the Cruz camp.
You have been posting a lie about Cruz for several days. And I've pointed it out to you and you continue to do it.
And yet here you are complaining about lying.
There is no Obama in this photo.
The Cruz camp should have used this photo.
But I have always thought, all is fair in love, war, and politics.
That Cruz has taken to turning his attention to Rubio shows me this however, he is running scared of losing the 2nd runner position to Rubio.
Why would an eager State of the Union hand shake with a guy who is destroying the country be laughed at? And who are you to suggest that that is what the Cruz Camp thinks?
Why did the Cruz camp run this photo?
Answer: Because it was at the State of the Union. They would be laughed at. Instead they ran with the FAKE PHOTO.
Dirty Tricks and Lies means they are desperate.
Because the image is NOT fake. Here is NBC putting the picture up over a year ago.

Your hit piece article is full of it. Why don't you sue NBC.
I agree, the picking nose bit is a low blow.
The Cruz camp has admitted it was a Fake photo.
Cruz turned his attention to Rubio a week before the Iowa Caucus too. Was Cruz running scared of losing second place there too?
Wait... you like the way Trump acts, bit it’s unbecoming for Cruz to do the same thing.
Standard Trumpette cognitive dissonance.
Interesting you need to make it about me - which means you have nothing rational or coherent to say about the content. Obviously the truth hurts, and with nothing left you default to ad hominem.
I’m saying that making a fake photo of two guys shaking hands makes you think that particular face to face meeting is true.
I would have no problem putting both guys in the same picture.
It’s the same as Fiorina saying that she met Putin. She never did.
You demonstrated cognitive dissonance. I pointed it out. Don’t like it, don’t do it.
Cruz Campaign Pushes Photoshopped Image of Rubio Shaking Hands with ObamaRubio shaking hands with Obama?
This guy Cruz is the same hypocrite that signed Corker. Cruz might as well have wiped Obama's but bare handed when he gave up his constitutional right of veto to give Obama/Kerry unconstitutional veto proof power to give away the ranch and nuclear power to Iran.
Signing Corker in favor of Obama/Kerry/Iran was neither Constitutional nor conservative.
Constitutional Conservative my ass...The man(using the term "man" loosely) is a fraud to the core.
How many photoshopped images of Obama did we chuckle over?
Here's one where you post a picture (lower left) of Ted Cruz and you photo shop something Cruz isn't saying and has never said.
Pretty slimy and hypocritical on your part to post such a photoshopped lie, now isn't it.
