If he didn’t owe him one, then why do it?
Why’d Cruz apologize ? ...because he felt his staff should have caught and corrected the clarification. That came soon on twitter but much later on CNN.
I saw it on CNN and would have done exactly what team Cruz did and felt I’d done the right and honorable thing.
Shared responsibility, mostly with CNN’s anchors, then the CNN reporter/tweeter, then Carson, and lastly Cruz’s top people....in that order....most to least.
Get off his case....he’s got the brains, eloquence, and guts to cut government, save the judiciary and courts, and promote real conservatism plus all the other campaign promises in the discussion; ie. Obiecare, the border, spending and taxes....with an evangelical bent. Why in God’s name isn’t he appreciated here?
Is it Trump or nothing? We’ve got to get our side on the same page. If we don’t, we don’t deserve to win. Trump worries me but I’ll support him big time. Or Carson, or Rubio, or Yeb, or Christie, or Katich.
I’d characterize Cruz’s apology to Carson as a general sorry this happened. Kinda like saying to someone sorry you’re not feeling well. Doesn’t mean you caused them to feel bad.
