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.

He probably didn’t have relations with all the women named in National Enquirer, but he knows something is coming out & he’s hedging.
Cruz said...Donald, keep my wife, kids & my mistresses out of this./s
I will vote for Cruz if I have to but my God charlatanism makes my skin crawl.
i wouldn’t either.
but cruz did a lot of preaching and held himself to a very high standard. that was his decision to make.
if he didn’t deliver, he’s in trouble.
if i ran for office, a blind and deaf investigator could bury me in a day!
a lifetime is a long time to have no bad past.
Cruz is a pig.
He is repignant.
No wonder his wife had a breakdown and his kid acts like he is a monster.
She probably has seen her mother cry because of him.
The dirty and delusional preacher man has uncontrollable lust in his loins
no. there are many pervs. he’s a rapist.
HUGE difference.
It is not the fact that Cruz was unfaithful, it is the fact that he denies being unfaithful, something the Donald has not done. Trump is basically an open book. Oh, wait, he is in fact an open book as he wrote about his infidelities a long time ago for all the public to read!!!
Cruz on the other hand pretends to be a family values purist when in fact, he is not better than Trump!
God's not running, so you're just going to have to suck it up and pick the lesser of evils.
It seems Cruz has New York values.
lol
500k Fiorina firewall
And he had Fiorina accuse Trump of being an adulterer. That’s pretty sleazy.
“The least Cruz could do would be honest for a change. We dont care what he and his wife do. Its the cover up. Trump has admitted he cheated in the past. He told the truth like a man. And for that no controversy. Cruz should do the same.”
Exactly what I think.
The cheating is between him and his wife, but the deception is an issue which concerns the U.S. voters.
There are few things that I detest more than being lied to.
That video is killer for Cruz. Standing weakly by as Carly jumps in front of him to cover. She looked like his lawyer, he looked so unlike a leader.
The visual was awful for him. He’s done.
Cruz supporters really need to watch this entire clip and its not good. His avoided answering a very direct question.
He cheated on his wife and NE story is garbage could be true at the same time
