You mean like the “conservative” telling Iowans the he wants to increase the ethanol mandate???
You mean things like that to win?
Cruz’s “slime” comes dirt cheap compared to Trump’s billions of dollars of our money as bribes for votes.
Yep, more Clintonian Moral Equivilancy from the Cruz Camp.
What we are talking about... transcends by far any typical political deal making to get endorsements. Cruz has put together a team that specifically comes up with dirty tricks that are absolute falsehoods.
A few recent examples that we are all now aware of: telling Carson supporters attending the caucuses that Ben Carson had dropped out... sending out official looking fliers to registered voters saying that they were in “violation” of Iowa voting laws because they had not caucused in past elections and telling them that they would be sending out a followups to their neighbors if they didn't get out and caucus for Cruz this time... such as telling people attending the caucuses that Trump was currently for Obamacare and late term abortions. The Cruz team has been caught repeatedly lying about the positions of other candidates during the actual caucusing and also on “social media”.
This was no mistake. This is something that we will probably be seeing more of. Cruz has hired people who study and specialize in this type of misinformation and manipulating social media such as face-book, twitter and yes even Free Republic. This goes far beyond the typical sleaze we see in almost every election. Cruz wants the presidency so bad that he seems willing to sell his soul to the devil to get it.
This may be acceptable to Clinton supporters, but I and many others find it shocking and very disingenuous that the one posing as he most pure conservative and a devout Christian would do this. More shocking is that there are so many here who can ignore their own stated values to excuse it. This is something far beyond politics as usual.
