The overload factor may be high, but the answer to my title-question is all of the above and more.
1) "More" includes Jeb Bush's endorsement of Ted Cruz this week, making official the merger between Bush, Inc. and the Cruz campaign, which began when the core of the Jeb Bush campaign finance committee, including the tainted Neil Bush (also globalist Boyden Gray) moved over to Team Cruz. Cruz supporters, from Rush Limbaugh (undeclared) to Kellyanne Conway, explain this as proof of how "True Conservative" Cruz has co-opted GOPe. I don't think so.
If that were so, why, as the Texas Tribune reported, did Ted Cruz make that first phone call to Charles Foster, a Houston immigration super-lawyer, to get the Bush, Inc. ball rolling? Foster is an active advocate of mass immigration. His law firm motto is "Fostering Global Immigration Solutions." He actually supports Obama's executive amnesty. According to the Texas Tribune, Foster "wasn't thinking about immediately supporting any candidate" after Jeb Bush dropped out. But he gave Cruz's phone call some thought, and, as Politico reported, "spent part of Monday afternoon writing a letter to other Bush alums and former donors urging them to come on board with Cruz to stop Trump."
Must have been an interesting phone call from Cruz to Foster. I wonder what they talked about? If Cruz is as tough as Trump on Foster's main issue of immigration, why would Foster bother opening his wallet (and his friends') again?
... (snip)
I predict we will see increasing evidence of the reverse, as Cruz more openly reverts to "free" trade, global-immigration-solutions-compatible rhetoric.

There seems to be dirt on everybody?
Name one politician who isn’t in bed with every other politician.
you seem to have missed the point of the article, or is it that you just failed to actually go read the entire article that is not about being in bed with other politicians, but about a certain Canadian Cruz Liar’s supposed political ideology that does not pass the constitutional conservative smell test.
Dirt? Because Trump is not a political insider and so it is taking him longer to catch up to the nuances of the game? I have hired and fired many people and I have had disgruntled employees call me every disgusting name in the book when I wouldn’t change our business plan to suit their schedule.
Anyone who didn't know this is either woefully and willfully ignorant, or stupid.
I already think that way about them. They have given no reason to think otherwise.
