Carson put out this statement to the media before the results were in last night and WAY before he started blaming Cruz.

He KNEW the info was falsely being reported and never said a peep anyone except in a statement to the media.

He needs to decide who he's going to blame. Cruz or the News.

7:03pm is when CArson’s informal advisor tweeted that the media reports were lies. Then at 7:11 he said what Carson’s plans were.

CNN didn’t correct the lie until much later. at http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/carson-other-campaigns-sabotaged-us-dirty-tricks it shows Steve King’s tweet, at 7:20pm.

That site also names some locations where the announcement was made: Johnston (Polk County), Iowa State University (Ames, IA, in Story County), Waterloo (Black Hawk County), and Boone (Boone County, very close to Story County).

Another article named the counties which Marco Rubio won: Dallas, Polk, Story, Johnson, and Scott. About the same time as CNN came out with the false tweet that Carson would not be campaigning for the next 2 or 3 primaries, Rubio’s people started saying how they were going to do a lot better than anybody expected. And in at least some of the places where CNN’s lie was announced by Cruz’s people, he did...

I suspect that CNN and the GOPe are trying to help Rubio, to bring down both Cruz and Trump (whose supporters are at each other’s throats over this) and force a brokered convention, as GOPe people have been guaranteeing would happen.

Really makes me think less of Ben. Why would he blame Cruz? Trump is the one who called Iowa voters stupid for supporting Carson and also said Carson had mental problems.

Carson is playing the victim now........who always needs someone to blame.

Can't believe his team confirmed he was going back to Florida for fresh clothes.......as if Iowa and NH don't have dry cleaners......so Carson himself left the door open for whatever followed with that dumb reasoning. Mu gosh you'd think his ad visors would see how lame that is.

Someone posted tweets from voters that they were in the rooms with the Cruz staff stating Carson has suspended his campaign.

I hope this is not true, especially after the mailing crap what happened, but when it there is a bunch of people tweeting the same around the same it does cause for some concern for me.

Post 7 . Another freeper has provided some proof.
The thing I liked about Cruz was he was not the dirty establishment and was honest.
