Greta Van Susteren went off on the Cruz Campaign tonight over their handling of the Ben Carson Caucus scandal.
On Monday Dr. Ben Carson accused the Cruz camp of foul play in the Iowa Caucuses.
Carson said the Cruz camp told voters Carson was dropping out and to support Ted Cruz.
Carson was right to be outraged...
The Cruz camp sent out messages and made calls to all precinct captains that Dr. Carson was dropping from the race.
On Thursday Greta Van Susteren reacted to the Cruz campaign scandal.
Greta Van Susteren: Horrible!... This is appalling!
For some reason to me, what happened that night was terrible. But then when they have time for reflection they make it even worse with this statement tonight. It's just appalling.
Karl Rove: They're circling the wagons. They know they made a big error. They're trying to change the subject and they're circling the wagons.
Greta Van Susteren: Then don't tell me that Senator Cruz apologized! Because all he does is try to make Carson wrong in this whole statement and Carson didn't do anything wrong. It's just completely ridiculous to say Senator Cruz apologized. They got caught. Now they got double caught. This is horrible and shame on the Cruz campaign!
LOL...maybe CRuz was the one who needed a change of (wolves) clothing.
;)
I think Mr. Carson and others would disagree with you slick.
Cruz supporters can scream all they want that this is all a nothingburger issue, but it's not. This thing has traction with the voters and the press. It's not blowing away. More like blowing up, and Ted had better get a handle on it quick, before it does him real damage.
As it stands now, it's widely perceived that Cruz and his campaign operatives cheated Ben Carson, and to some degree, Trump and Rubio, too.
What they did, looks underhanded and dirty, to a lot of people.
“It’s wise to judge a candidate by what he lets his campaign staff get away with.”
There you go.
I stated that moral principle the other night, and you might have thought I denied the existence of Heaven and Hell!
What kind of person hits the road without a few pair of undies? Wasn’t there a Walmart nearby? Are they gold-trimmed and kept in a safe at home? Is he maybe a little spacey? Forgot cash and a credit card? He IS a lil on the sleepy side.
Thanks, dear Windflier for setting the misinformers straight.
It’s their latest meme....this and the government healthcare lie.
It’s telling when they have to change the topic of the thread.....where even Greta has completely busTED CRuz, to lies and distortions, about Trump.
Again....kudos to you for setting them straight ;-)
What a mess Carson is making with this whole thing.
You make it sound as though an illegal can simply go home and just hop on a bus to Phoenix after simply filling out a form.
It's a lie, and you know it, but you're willing to keep repeating it, in hopes that lo-info voters buy into it.
Goebbels much?
Trump has said repeatedly that he intends to evict every illegal alien from this country, but that they can come back if they do it LEGALLY. Just how do you twist actually enforcing U.S. immigration law into a 'touchback amnesty'?
Well, leaving and coming back legally seems to me to be the whole point. You can call it 'touchback amnesty' if you want, but if they touch back for 5-10 years to get to the back of the line, that's what it's all about.
The issue of playing the religion card as Cruz resorted to 3rd rate political gutter ethics while folks are in the process of actually voting, won’t be going away for Mr. Cruz.
Will Hillary be unbeatable if marketed as a sweet old grandma?

Problem:
Grandma is the Bonnie of Bonnie & Clyde
Grandma is Tokyo Rose
Grandma is Mata Hari
Grandma is the Wolf of Little Red Riding Hood
Everybody knows exactly who “grandma” is and is not.
What kind of man fights a grandma? You don’t.
Vote Bernie.
Why?
You’ll love me forever if you want to?

And there’s a beaver clamped down hard on Cruz’ butt that won’t let go.
My gut tells me the same thing, given how that all went down.
I mean, Team Cruz went into action with lightning speed and got the word out to all 1,500 of their Iowa precinct captains, who then spread the rumor to the Carson supporters DURING the caucus.
If this was just an unintentional slip-up, there would have been some chitter chatter about the rumor on back channels, and a few scattered precinct captains might have run with it, to sway some Carson supporters. But no. This was executed like a battlefield kill strategy.
There's no way every precinct captain ran with such a shady rumor unless they it was communicated to them with authority and command presence. By whom, I'm not sure.
What exactly is Heidi into?
Precisely.
That’s rich...Character matters you say but you are fine supporting a man who makes fun of the disabled. Some fine character right there.
Maybe Goldman Sachs
