Link me to any point in the four month posting of Isara’s graphic all day long every day when you asked him to stop.

Thanks in advance.

This is impossible because doughty one informs everyone Cruz lied.

Please link me to where you called Isara’s posting of his graphic over four months, to be like Ash’s actions.

My graphic really nailed you folks. Enjoy...

What Cruz’s campaign said was not really about the trip back to Florida. It was about the fact that Carson was not going to campaign in NH and SC, which is what CNN’s report said. Here’s the transcript of the CNN clip:

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

Male: Ben Carson, what have we learned?

Female: That’s right, our - we should say, our Chris Moody is breaking this, this news, that Ben Carson is gonna go back to Florida to his home, regardless of how he does tonight here in Iowa. He’s gonna go there for several days, and then afterwards he’s not gonna go to South Carolina, he’s not gonna go to New Hampshire. He’s gonna come to Washington, DC, and he’s gonna do that because the National Prayer Breakfast is on Thursday. And people who have been following Ben Carson’s career know that that’s really where he got himself on the political map, attending that prayer breakfast and really giving it to B, President Barack Obama at the time. And he became kind of a hero among uh, conservatives as well as evangelicals especially. But

M: And it’s very unusual

F: VERY unusual

M: to be announcing that you’re going home to rest for a few days, not going on to the next site. Plus, he’s already announced that he’s gonna be coming out and speaking at 9:15 local

F: Mm-hm

M: 10:15 Eastern, no matter whether or not uh, we know the results, uh, because he wants to get home and get ahead of the storm.

F: Look. If you want to be President of the United States, you don’t go to Florida. I mean, that’s just bottom line. That’s the end of the story. If you want to signal to your supporters that you want it, that you’re hungry for it, that you want them to get out and campaign, you gotta be out there doing it too, and he’s not doing it. It’s very unusual.

M: Very unusual news, that CNN has just learned, CNN’s Chris Moody breaking the story. Wolf, back to you in Washington.

Wolf Blitzer: VERY significant news indeed, guys. Thanks very much.

END OF RECORDING

CNN should not have reported hearsay.typical shoddy reporting of gossip instead of validating information. Cruz exploited the situation revealing why no peers like or trust him.

I asked Isara to continue posting his graphic. The positional statements are always being updated. KEEP POSTING, ISARA.

>> My graphic really nailed you folks.

No, it didn’t “nail” me, because it’s nonsense invented out of thin air.

However it does disappoint me. On the one hand you do such great work with the FR caucus poll, for which I’m grateful.

On the other hand, you post something so patently false and stupid. It shows nothing so much as a rabid partisan with a chapped butt because “his guy” lost.

It’s definitely not your best work. Are you proud of it? For your own sake you should at least find something that has a grain of truth to it and isn’t so utterly sophomoric.

Please try to be happy.

Cruz won, remember?

Why do you think I’m doing this?

Give it some thought.

Cruz did that? Please site an authoritative source identifying Cruz as having been involved. I just cannot find it, but I guess you did.

Thanks

[It was about the fact that Carson was not going to campaign in NH and SC]

CARSON’S not campaigning in NH because his 5 paid staff quit and joined the CRUZ campaign.
