See, see! Trump's harsh, vile, despicable campaign rhetoric went back in time and radicalized Cruz!

This is it! Trump's poll numbers will tank now, I tell ya!

I don't know if the NE is true or not but I would not be surprised one bit if some, most or all of it is. I would say the lure of power, money and sex provide the biggest temptations to men in positions to take advantage of and abuse those things. Ted Cruz has already made some awfully poor decisions in regards to power and money that contradict his Christian image, so why would sex be any different?

I've seen many Ted Cruz supporters take to defending their guy in various ways against this story, including calling the source (NE) into question. That is certainly a legitimate defense.

Maybe I've missed it but what I haven't seen from Cruz supporters is a defense of "Impossible! Ted Cruz would NEVER do that!" That's because even Cruz supporters are (subconsciously) afraid that there might some truth to this story since it becomes more obvious every day that he is not quite the guy we were sold.

If I find out Ted was e-mailing Hillary on her personal server, I’m moving to France.

Lawyer Lyin’ Ted will soon issue another press statement calling this “Garbage” and blaming on Trump, all the while never denying that it is true.

Just like the 5 women. Hold the Bible up high Ted and tell the world you did not have sex with that...I mean those...women.

Uh oh....

The desperation is palpable

[freedomjusticeruleoflaw]

At first I thought Trump’s “lyin’ Ted” stream of conciousness was over top. Perhaps Trump knew something I didn’t know though? It will seem mild if the NE story turns out to be true.

Ok, this is a nothing story. The email address in question is not for any individual Cruz staff member, it is for ‘press’@cruz.senate.gov, nothing to see here folks, IMHO.

Another domino falls.

Another “Poison Pill’, Ted wanted to track down adulterers.

If you are in public office, you should know that nothing is done in private when done on the internet.

This is from last year and supposedly a general email address tied to one of his campaigns, not his personal address or anyone's personal address.

Don't know if the bimbo eruptions are true but this seems to be possibly a set up and would take it with a grain of salt.

“Ashley Madison does not, by its own admission, engage in any type of email verification, making fictitious accounts another resource in the cheater’s toolbox.”

This is in Aug 2015 that the Cruz email was found on Ashley Madison and we are just hearing about it now?!!???...this is red meat for the left

Someone (Hillary) been sand bagging dirt if needed like the Cruz Canadian birth ...you know the dem are holding that in the back pocket..break glass if needed....

at this point all the dirt had better get dump.out on everyone before the General against the dems

“The email address in question is press@cruz.senate.gov, a publicly and widely available forwarding address that is often entered into web contact forms by people with no connection to our office,”

This is pathetic. Less than nothing there. Free Republic is being brought down to tabloid news level. I used to tell people to go to FR for news and insight. That no longer happens. I'm embarrassed to say I go there.

Was Marla Maples on Ashley Madison?

This is pretty weak gruel on which to fuel Ted hate. The email is press@, not an email address anyone mildly cogent would use if they are in the political arena. Staffers? Sure.
