"I was just as dogmatically in favor of Cruz a few months ago, and, in fact donated twice to his campaign. Gradually and doing my own thinking, I had a sinking feeling that stuff wasn’t adding up like failing to disclose loans from GS ect."

I'm curious. Did your research find that the loan from GS was on a brokerage account, which means that he was borrowing his own money using the value in the account as collateral, and that he disclosed the loan on one publically available document which indicates that he was not trying to hide the loan?

Then why didn’t Mr Lawyer submit it to the FEC? Why is he dragging his feet on the $500K disclosure to Carley to the FEC? What is he hiding?

Sure, no problem. Part of my research was from an article I read by Peter Overby near the end of January 2016. This as a partial extract from the piece....”Cruz’s Senate campaign reported to the Federal Election Commission that Cruz made the loans; there’s no mention of Goldman or Citi. This appears to be contrary to election law, which requires a candidate not only to report the amount, interest rate, terms and date but also to file the actual loan documents. That last is to thwart secret sweetheart deals.”

This was not the only reason I was losing faith in Ted as I have a lifelong friend that lives in Glen Rose, Texas and he filled me in on some of Cruz’s pluses and minuses.
