I’d take money from anyone also. Doesn’t mean they are going to get anything for it.

You cannot be that naive. You think for a million dollars there will be no payback? Why would banks or others lay out that kind of cash unless they're assured it's an investment?

“You think for a million dollars there will be no payback?”

Nail meet hammer. This is what Cruz tried to tell us made him different—he was an “outsider” and there would be no `Let’s Make a Deal,’ and he won a lot of supporters, many here.
You buy a delegate or donor with promises of support once elected. Or it could be a straight cash deal. He’s blowing through RNC Romney/Bush donors fast. Many of them have already made deals and don’t want to pay twice.

It’s hard to believe on this site someone has never heard of political patronage.

I had someone here a long time ago tell me they had never heard of `elite power’ theory. Well, we’re seeing it now and it’s in full drag. The levers of political power are for sale and Cruz is both for sale and buying. This isn’t an argument, he just admitted it.
