So let him get his 9 % and don't use dirty tricks to suppress his voters.And that 9% would have cost other candidates.

Not to be a downer, but remember who won Iowa in 2012 and 2008.
To: Bob434
He was asking for proof that ted ‘knew’ carson had denied it- how do you know Ted knew carson had denied it? Did you ask him or something? Why repeat a news story from CNN which, upon inspection, doesn't actually have team Carson claiming they are dropping out?
To: Greetings_Puny_Humans
wow, Cruz repeats a CNN headline... how evil of him!!!!!!

Cruz was doing this from 5pm on down, apparently, after Carson had already denied this claim.
Prove it!

funny how trumpsters want people to run like b....s from cruz because of this nonsense, but dems will vote for someone who could be indicted while running.

why

But Cruz will just lie about it and his supporters will claim that it was a great idea.
There is apparently no level too low for Trump supporters to sink to.

“Upon closer inspection”, Cruz’s message ALSO doesn’t say “dropping out”. Desperate much?

The Cruz campaign tried to get Carson voters to switch to Rubio?
That’s terrible. I’m shocked.

Did Cruz say that Carson was dropping out? Nope. Camp Carson is claiming the opposite.
To: Teacher317
cruz wrote carson was gonna “Stop Campaigning” is what post 20 says.
I can see how Cruz people would read that and tell voters Carson was dropping out. That would be my first thought.

“take a break” and “stop campaigning” were the phrases used by CNN and Cruz respectively. Those seem pretty synonymous to me. If you’re not on the trail, then you’re not campaigning, whether you’re still in the race or not. What else is Carson taking a break from? His knitting? CNN is the misleading one, if anyone. Cruz’s team simply jumped on a Breaking News crawler, nothing more, despite your attempts to make it look like more.

When you have Cruz surrogates at multiple precincts even interfering with Carson people trying to speak, according to the Carson campaign, it starts to look like Team Cruz was willing to say and do anything to win on caucus night.

Exactly, can it be possible that some from the establishment infiltrated and became part of the campaign staff to destroy Ted?
