Ted Cruz didnt attack Donald Trump early in the cycle because others who had ended up as roadkill.
In an interview with Wisconsin's Charlie Sykes of WTMJ, the Texas senator was pressed about his earlier fawning statements about Trump, including a tweet from December that said he wouldnt engage with Trump because the billionaire businessman was terrific.
What took you so long? WTMJ asked, referring to Cruz's now full-throated attacks on Trump.
It was a wonderfully diverse, talented, dynamic, young field. It had really incredible talent. If you look at a number of the candidates that took on Donald Trump early on, they ended up as roadkill, Cruz said in the Wednesday interview, which was first reported by BuzzFeed News.
Cruz said the strategy all along was to first build up a strong core of support before directly taking on Donald. And not be roadkill, Cruz added. I am very strongly committed on the anti-roadkill approach.

“Ted Cruz didnt attack Donald Trump early in the cycle because others who had ended up as roadkill.
But it kind of seems to be happening to him anyway. :-)
Heresy is apparently a one way street these days.
Don't hurt your face smiling, Sometimes "roadkill" goes both ways.
Wow!
That’s an argument for hunting if I’ve ever seen one.
The mother of all North American road kill.
OMG!!!!! :-)
I started laughing.
Rush, for all his political skills, was clearly back peddling.
In political circles, it is Standard Operating Procedure to use Pacs as the dirt machines. The candidates know they don't even have to respond or disavow the attacks, becasue they can claim that to "even communicate disapproval might indicate cooperations, so for the good of the law, I must stay silent."
It is a load of BS and everyone knows it.
I also laugh at the sudden worship of the sacredness of election laws. You mean like voting ballots being handed out like flyers in Utah? You mean like some precents having over 100% turnout? You mean like candidates or their surrogates campaigning in front of and even inside polling locations?
Ha ha ha.
IF that story in the Tabloids in true—even if its only 50% true—Ted is toast.
What if it isn’t true? Then the bulk of you have slandered and defamed a good man.

So Cruz does not copulate with rats and is deathly afraid of them too.....Thank you Mr. Trump for showing us this YELLOW rose of Tex....I mean Canada.
Unbelieveable Cruz would say he was afraid of Trump, as if that was a selling point. Wimpy and not smart....although he does have a way with words.
VIVA KING RAT GO TRUMP!
Its all about....who would you .....copulate with?
