BREAKING: Political Operative Speaks Out on ‘Cuban Mistress Crisis’
Gateway Pundit ^ | 03/28/2016 | Jim Hoft

--snip--

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.

I was thinking that, if true, it might actually help Cruz in November. Hillary couldn’t even think about bringing it up!........

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.

In modern times, I would say the older the president’s age, without getting crazy, the better.

Nixon, Reagan, Ike had to be up there, no?

then we have Obama, Clinton, bush II...

i’m 47 and I think in twenty years i’ll be as mature as a young adult :)

That’s the point you choose to ignore. Trump didn’t hide it or lie about it. Plus he isn’t running as the “anointed one from God” like Cruz is.

Face it. Your guy is a fraud, and all of you bought the lie- hook, line, and sinker.

You especially.

So Cruz can have affairs and still be the conservative? Insanity.

Yeah right. I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop. A man's shoe that is......

I'm convinced that Raphael is a fellow ball gargler like his good cuban comrade Rubio.

Ted Rafael Cruz sided with Soros-funded leftist agitators over the rule of law! If he supports leftists over hard-working Americans exercising their 1st Amendment rights, what makes you think he's going to represent you?

That was years ago and he was not running for President pretending to be holier than everyone else. Trump has been honest about that unlike Cruz who will not answer a simple question. But, you knew that.

You’re NOT pissed about what’s happened to our country?

Does anyone know how old Amanda’s child is???

That $500,000 might be child support.

Heidi was on the side of the road in 2005. That’s 11 years ago. I think it was 2005.

OPERATIVE: Well, like I told you, I’ve been following the Cruz scandal, alleged scandal, and I have a theory.

GP: Okay. How do you want me to go with this? Is this something you know?

OPERATIVE: Like I said before on the phone, I am trying to fill in the blanks. I have no direct, personal knowledge that my conclusions are true, but comments by Glenn Beck today were sort of the the last puzzle piece, you know, in the theory I worked on over the weekend. It was like a key.

This is really getting ridiculous. Everyone with a “theory” and “no personal knowledge” are getting cited as experts with knowledge. I don’t give a damn what side you’re on, don’t be played for suckers.

I guess “Principled Conservative” has a whole new meaning.

The biggest problem is Carpenter. I don’t care what she denied, the Tweets back and forth of lovey-dovey song lyrics, her attempted Twitter purge, her matching tattoo-—even if temporary as a joke?? This is all strongly suggestive of a love affair apparently apart from the one Cruz will cop to.

So, you are a conservative who will violate the Constitution of The United States?

That sounds crazy.
