Because even if Cruz was polling SECOND, he was still very close to the top, and considered a front runner.
People hate those the most who lie while carrying a bible in their hand. Cruz campaign has been caught red handed spreading LIES about Dr Carson quitting the race. The media sharks have now smelled the blood, and they have begun circling. The feeding frenzy is next.
Cruz campaign’s Lies are 1,000,000 times more serious than my mistake in counting how many days Cruz was ahead and how many days Trump was ahead. You should be ashamed in overlooking the horrendous lies of Cruz campaign and picking on my count of who was ahead more Trump ur Cruz in Iowa polls.
And lets not forget the scary letter sent to a lot of low voting Iowa Republicans suggesting that they had a “VOTING VIOLATION” in bold red. Not only was this creepy and nasty, it was also LYING because there is NO voter violation connected with not voting. It is our right to vote or not as we choose, unlike some places with tyrants and dictators. And then it was made even worse by suggesting that the neighbors would know about their voting behavior. Like “Big Brother is watching you or is having the neighbors watch you.” Brrrrr.
Cruz only pulled into second on December 5th. He only pulled into 3rd on November 19th.
Sorry, he wasn’t anywhere near a “front runner” until the last couple of months. Carson, Trump, and Walker were in the (goalpost reassigned) front runner positions longer than Cruz.
It wasn’t a mistake in counting how many days, it was a flat out lie.
