OPERATIVE: Yeah, two and the anchor. The anchor here is the absurdity. You know, the Enquirer story. Five women, shoving ‘em in closets and on desks or whatever right in the middle of meetings. That’s kind of, that’s, I just don’t see how you hide or how people miss that kind of stuff. That’s Bill Clinton stuff, you know. Sex crazed. And Glenn Beck does this whole I got raped by Ted Cruz bit this morning and everybody on my staff got raped, tasteless stuff.
GP: Yeah, we blogged about that . . .
OPERATIVE: yeah, I know, and that’s the anchor. And Beck doubled down on the anchor, said something about five women in closets and all that like I said, right? And then he sets the anchor really strong with a headline and it worked cause it was the headline you even went with. He said If this is true I’ll drop Ted Cruz like a hot potato.
GP: Yeah. Uh huh.
OPERATIVE: So there’s the hook, the headline, and then he sets expectations. He lowers the bar sort of so to speak. He says something like “Look, if it turns out Cruz had an affair six years ago and came clean and made up with his wife or whatever, then who am I to judge. People make mistakes.”
GP: Yeah. So how does that work then? What’s, how does that go with the anchor?
OPERATIVE: I think Glenn Beck just told the world the real story. There was an affair six years ago. One affair. It’s over now. And the Enquirer story is so over the top that a single affair six years ago will look like, yeah, whatever. It’s a perfect anchor, hook, and low ball. Perfect. It’s what Jeff Roe, his campaign manager, does.

=========================================
We are all S partacus undance!
Who are you?
How many hookers with pics of Teb is he now paying to keep silent.
So many lies, so much sleaze.... what’s true about this guy and what isn’t? It doesn’t even matter anymore, his whole campaign has been a disaster, how could he run a country? The only thing he is anointed with is stupidity!
I wish both sides would stop casting stones.
We are a laughing stock to the world. And the vitriol I read here in my favorite forum is damaging all of us.
Bingo. I’ve been arguing for some time that Ted is a sociopath. Has all the hallmarks of one.
56??? he looked older than Reagan :)
Can’t picture Ike’s face in my head.
But yeah, 60ish on is good.
If my mom, a US citizen, was in England on vacation when I was born, would I be an English subject?
If your mom lived and worked in England and then voted in an election as a English citizen and your dad was a Cuban citizen, yes you would be a citizen of Great Britain.
Cruz’s mother voted as a Canadian citizen and at that time she would have had to give up her US citizenship to become a Canadian.
Note to the gullible: Cruz refuses to release his birth certificate. Why?

This operative is full of crap. Occam’s Razor applies. Ted Cruz is overly ambitious and without morals. Like Clinton he compartmentalizes, thus he carries on affairs/encounters without considering they will thwart his ambitions. To him it’s part of the power grab and spoils of his success.
Jeff Roe is no evil mastermind. Slick yeah, and deserves credit for getting a crap candidate with narrow appeal this far. But he isn’t managing every play here to perfection. And he is not smarter than Trump.
Trump has systematically eliminated his competition one by one. He always said Cruz would be easy when it was his time. Trump controls a week worth of news with a single tweet, no not even that, a retweet for God’s sake! Trump has laid low and let Cruz, Carpenter, etc flail about blaming him as they try to extricate themselves from this mess, punching themselves tired.
Cruz will be out of this race most likely right after Wisconsin.
He looked good too. like Reagan.
Nixon has to be one of the worst looking presidents I remember. poor guy.
As for his terms as president, I don’t know if he was good, bad or in between.
Born in ‘68. I know he opened up with China. Not sure how he handled Vietnam. And took us off the gold standard. That’s it.
It is rumored that the Rubio people, not Trump, broke the news of the affair. Do you think that this affair was the reason why Heidi Cruz was depressed and walking around town in her nightgown when she was picked up by police? Is the nightgown incident what Trump meant when he said he would expose Cruz’ wife
BUMP! I can hardly post lately, it's like wading into a murky swamp filled with alligators.
I understand passion, I also understand when passion becomes insanity.
Not good.
Today yes, but not when Cruz’s mom gave birth to Ted in Canada, she would had to renounce her US citizenship to receive Canadian citizenship. She voted in at least one Canadian election as a Canadian citizen, that is on the record.
You wrote: “I will vote for Ted Cruz. I never once thought be was the better candidate because Trump had affairs and Cruz didn’t. I thought he was better because Trump isn’t a conservative; he’s an emotional vote by people who are pissed at what has happened to our country.”
Okay, so you think Cruz is the better candidate. Why?
I’m glad I’m not the only one feeling this way. I do feel like there be sharks in the waters. Hungry, nasty ones....
I agree except for the laughing stock bit. John Kerry and the likes try to sell that message, but it simply isn't true.
*Ahem*
Personal attack! Abuse!
I feel violated..../s
:-)
I pictured your head bobbling like Fiona’s as you typed that.....LOL! ....hit a nerve...LOL !
*snork*
Bingo.
The globalism. The holier than thou attitude is just icing. The affairs tank his ‘honesty’ imprimatur.
