Ben Carson and his closest advisers are going nuclear against Ted Cruz and his campaign for spreading false rumors that he intended to drop out ahead of the Iowa caucuses.
Carson's close friend and adviser Armstrong Williams told The Hill in an interview on Wednesdaythat the Cruz campaign’s tactics were 'nasty, brutal and deceitful.'
'We've been told all along that Cruz's operatives play dirty and were capable of this stuff, but Dr. Carson never believed it, he felt like they had a respectable operation,' Williams said. 'Now we see firsthand that having integrity just doesn't matter to them. It's about honor and character, either you have it or you don'.t'
Williams said he's certain that Cruz knew the rumors about him dropping out were false but says the Texas Republican allowed his underlings to spread it anyway.
'He's a pure politician and will do anything to win,' Williams said. 'It doesn't matter who he does it to, friend or foe, whatever it takes to win. Cruz has been running as an outsider and calling Hillary Clinton dishonest. Well, Cruz is the one running without honor or integrity, and this shows he's just like everyone else inside-the-beltway.'
Carson has demanded Cruz fire those responsible for spreading the rumor, but Cruz has said he won't do that.
"After all the candidates worked so hard, and Dr. Ben Carson had a staff member lose his life working towards this day, to have someone like Cruz and his people deceive and spread falsehoods is unconscionable," Williams said.

With Carson’s funding taking a nose dive, he can’t afford to let go of this.
Expect him to go to the RNC for a ruling.
Carson’s team “strenuously objects...”?
Expect RNC to ignore request as it would apply to both Cruz and Rubio saying what was on cable news at the time.
If Dr Carson wants to get mad, be mad at the staffer that let the implication that he was not going to NH become the narrative.
This is where his fighting spirit is now center of attention. Does he move on and ignore it, or does he fight back? What ever he does will give us an indication as to how he would be in the White House.
They should take Cruz’s and Rubio’s Iowas delegates and give them to Carson.
"After all the candidates worked so hard, and Dr. Ben Carson had a staff member lose his life working towards this day, to have someone like Cruz and his people deceive and spread falsehoods is unconscionable," Williams said.
Stand on that dead body just like Obama would! I wonder why he doesn't mention Carson's ground game in Iowa, did he have one?
Zzzzzzzzz
Carson needs to get over it. He was never a viable candidate.

The Ruling is you are a moron if you read from ANOTHER contender that your guy dropped out of the race, so vote for him!!
Come on, man.
Also, 9 percent, which he received, was the HIGHEST he had polled in a long time Average was 7.
Let it go.
Rubio, Meagan, Ailes, Britt, that piece of @#$@$ Rove and Murdoch are laughing.
Still no campaign events on Carson’s website and he’s reported to be cutting staff.
"After all the candidates worked so hard, and Dr. Ben Carson had a staff member lose his life working towards this day, to have someone like Cruz and his people deceive and spread falsehoods is unconscionable," Williams said.
Carson is right to be furious. I would be too. Who wouldn't be? There's no telling how many votes the Cruz campaign illicitly sucked up using this tactic but I can nearly guarantee it's more than none.
Cruz's apology was insufficient, IMHO. It was after the fact, after the votes were counted and most importantly it didn't include the phrase '...and I fired every single operative involved in this shameful deception.'
And so the mainstream media’s and the GOPe’s war on Cruz continues. And the low-information amongst us swallow it whole and puff it up some more.
CRUZ operative did the same thing in a previous election

This was NO MISUNDERSTANDING
The downside of true political novices begins to show.
Carson & Trump are making themselves look inept.
Well Dr. Carson, did you or did you not accept his apology?
This is bad. Carson wasn’t my guy, but this is a low down act.
Except Carson dropping out was NOT on cable news. The Cruz camp made an assumption that was wrong.
