Thank Ben Carson for this, for setting up a narrative that allowed Rubio to win votes by calling Cruz a liar even when Cruz soundly exposed him as the liar.

Truth doesn’t matter. I don’t think that’s the end result Carson wanted but it’s what we got, with help from a lot of Freepers who have no qualms about lying - most of them claiming it’s because they don’t like Cruz claiming to be Christian.

Looks like maybe it’ll be Rubio picking up Kasich and Bush’s votes and we’ll get a “Gang of Eight” guy we’re supposed to pull the lever for.

Again, thanks a lot, Ben Carson and a bunch of Freepers.

I think we’ll be fine so long as the anti-Rubio voters coalesce around one candidate. It needs to happen soon.

Freepers are like one one-hundreth of a percent of the right wing voting base.

Don’t blame us for Ted’s loss.

Ted being called a liar isn’t anyone’s fault but Ted’s.

He did some questionable things, therefore he was questioned.

Ben Carson didn’t do anything.

I don’t think it is Trump people who are calling Cruz a liar. I think it is GOPe trolls, many of whom signed up in the past six months, who are using that meme to take down Cruz. They are doing that so that the race is between Trump and the GOPe candidates Rubio and Kasich. Then they will turn their guns on Trump and try and destroy him as well so that the conservatives will either vote for the GOPe candidate or stay home.

Just watch. Many of the posters who are ridiculing Cruz will disappear if it becomes clear that he is neutralized. Then new posters will come in to mock Trump in the same Alinsky-like way.

Great candidate accountability. Sounds like so much of the rest of our country...”it’s not my fault”. Ever think Cruz may just not be that appealing of a candidate outside of FR?

most of them claiming it's because they don't like Cruz claiming to be Christian.

That isn't even close.

No one here objects to Cruz calling himself a Christian.

I personally object to the fact that his behavior doesn't line up with his claim.

But you knew that too.
