Republican presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)97% says that eight former national finance committee members for Jeb Bushs failed presidential campaign have joined Cruzs finance committee.

“Cruz has been Bush establishment since 1999, wifey for almost as long.”
YES
Well documented.
“..Brands him as establishment....”
Yes. You just cannot go into the present Congress, and not get ESTABLISHMENT all over you. Cruz still stands out as a fighter. Too bad much more of the Congress are not like him. Obama would have been controlled. People get the government they deserve.
"I know -- let's light our cigars with these contribution checks!"
If that doesn't destroy his candidacy, maybe he could hire some former campaign experts for Harold Stassen.
Another fact that ted has moved closer to the estbalishment
Arghh.
That can’t be! I thought Ted was the ultimate anti-GOPe candidate. (:-)
Exactly. Like where are they going to get money from? These donors have been burned twice already. JEB!-1 and JEB!-2.
And as somebody put it beautifully, “There ain’t many more states like Texas outside of Texas.
Cruz can still get right back in there and probably be counted as the front runner if Cruz can win Florida. But he dies at 3rd. In fact, 3rd place finisher in FL is a candidate looking for an exit. With the exception of Kasich who’s duty bound to stay until Ohio.
If they had joined Trump’s team, we’d be singing their praises today. Kinda like Chris Christie.
Ted was already stealth establishment. Now he openly allows the mob into his operation.
I don’t see this as good news.
Florida and Ohio are on the same day.
Ted has always been my 2nd choice....politics are nasty..they never fail to disappoint...still drag myself to the polls for him against madam cankles.
According to Marco and the movie, I think booger had large hands.
Pssh.
GS was enough for me.
Yea, you’re right. I thought FL was 5th and Ohio the 15th
“One of them is an immigration lawyer.
He was also an advisor to Obama in the 2008 campaign.”
Well now.
CRUZ CAMPAIGN SUICIDE
I have been a Cruz supporter this cycle. I have volunteered in several campaigns and even held a paid position in one. I have some experience in these matters.
I understand the needed interaction of money,DC,policy and VOTE GETTING.
I know that Cruz has had to have one leg in the establishment patch while attempting to maintain some independence and still run a campaign as a steadfast conservative.
But this news, if accurate, is very serious. It will impact the Cruz campaign. The damn immigration lawyer from the Obama/Bush trashpile is a real mistake.
The Kansas vote is tomorrow. Our votes in this household, once leaning Cruz, will not happen.
Cruz campaign you really just committed SUICIDE. If not here, then down the road with this foolish personnel decision.
