Ted Cruz dodges question about whether he's 'always been faithful' to his wife ...

Ted Cruz dodges question about whether he's 'always been faithful' to his wife as endorser Carly Fiorina leaps in to insist a declaration that he's not an adulterer is a 'dance to Donald trump's tune'

Texas senator could put National Enquirer scandal to rest with a simple statement that he has never strayed in his 14-year marriage

Instead he has batted down the supermarket tabloid's speculative story about five alleged affairs in a more limited fashion

Carly Fiorina leaped in to intercept DailyMail.com's request for a blanket statement of marital fidelity and Cruz ultimately punted on the question

Fiorina pleaded for a return to discussing issues, but lobbed her own accusation at 'serial adulterer' Donald Trump

Cruz also challenged Trump to a one-on-one debate in Wisconsin on Tuesday night: 'Why don't you show up and debate like a man?'

Ted Cruz declined to answer a question on Monday about whether he has ever been unfaithful to his wife Heidi.

'Senator Cruz,' DailyMail.com asked him, 'can you please swat down more definitively this National Enquirer piece by telling us on the record that you've never been unfaithful to your wife?'

The National Enquirer published a story last Wednesday that speculated about five women with whom the Republican presidential candidate was rumored to have had extramarital affairs.

Cruz has batted down the specifics of the story on numerous occasions since it appeared in supermarket checkout lanes.

But instead of making a blanket declaration that he has been faithful during the entirety of his 14-year marriage – a move that would effectively end the vicious news cycle – Cruz stood silently as campaign surrogate Carly Fiorina leapt in to intercept the question and change the subject.

It is bewildering that people don’t see it. And not just with this subject.

“I think this is a picture from to today”

Being together they both now have Carly to shield them from the tough questions. Ted did not want to chance having his wife alone out in New Jersey to answer the reporters questions.

“This is manufactured from the belly of the best of American Leftism.”

So it’s all just a vast left wing conspiracy, huh? Is Ted gonna wag his finger in our faces next?

I didn’t like this movie the first time around, and I hate the sequel even more.

so why couldn’t he just say he never had cheated on his wife?

If this is true we need to know. If he is a lying snake in the grass he has no business anywhere near the White House. This is corruption pure and simple.

But Cruz has responded to the attack and yet won't say that he never was unfaithful to his wife.

You can't have it both ways.

Had he ignored it, then he could keep quiet.

Who has Trump destroyed? He doesn’t have that kind of power.

Why should Cruz spend time and money to defend himself against rumor mongers? The majority of people don’t believe it. Trump supporters believe it because they want to believe it.

That was such an easy question for Ted Cruz to answer if he has always been faithful to his wife don't you think?

” Trump accuses people without proof”

Can you give an example?

I find it so curious that these cruzbots are in a fury and always resort to the same old tired one liners. All the while claiming that anyone who is for Trump is a blind follower....such irony.

Cruz is going to push his poor little me act too far, and when the next shoe drops, it’s going to get ugly.

He reacted to the charges already so now he has to respond to questions.

A CLEAR ,CONCISE statement that he is faithful would do a great deal to put the burden of proof on his accusers.

To me, the hypocrisy is the story. Cruz followers that were painting him as so much moral than Trump did not do him any favors either. I think Cruz encouraged that reputation.

It’s the hypocrisy.
