This is a guy who lived with Cruz, and spent time with him. His comments about Cruz are far different than what I would have expected, which is something along the lines of "Well, Ted is a conservative Constitutionalist to the core, though I don't agree with him on politics, that is just who he is..." 1) Everybody who went to college thought at least one of their roommates was an @$$#0!ₑ. 2) One has to be something of an @$$#0!ₑ oneself to still be going on about it 20 or 30 years later. 3) Jerks who do go public about their roommates 30 years back are likely to give the worst possible picture of those roommates, because they are jerks themselves. ---------------------------- Well this is just my take on it, and I am concerned. 1. There are other roommates who have said the same. 2. He was asked by reporter--not like he is going on about it... 3. I would think that most people would want to be associated with a famous person running for President... Everyone likes a winner mentality...BTW I have not seen nasty Trump roommate articles yet.

He was asked by reporter--not like he is going on about it...

Au contraire. Craig Mazin's been tweeting about this for months.

Cruz's college roommate is on an epic 10-month Twitter rant

That article was from a few months back so now Mazin's been tweeting about Cruz for over a year.

I would think that most people would want to be associated with a famous person running for President... Everyone likes a winner mentality...

Not if they're on different sides of a political/ideological/religious divide.

I suppose Ted Cruz was a jerk in college. Most college boys are. My concern was more with Craig Mazin's character now. There's something very ugly in what he's been doing. More here and here.

I certainly wouldn't take Mazin's word for it that Cruz was "completely unprincipled." That's the hate talking, not necessarily a fair and unbiased assessment.

BTW I have not seen nasty Trump roommate articles yet.

Not yet anyway.
