I supported Cruz from early on and still think he’d make a great president, but the way he has run his campaign is downright Clintonian.

I know these types of things are not coming from Cruz himself. but its time for a shake up in his staff.

I guess an apology is better than nothing, at this point.

I would fire anyone dumb enough to think that Marco Rubio would say actually say something so stupid as was suggested in the inaccurate captions, but that’s just me.

Ouch. Cruz himself needs to address this with his staff. It continues the narrative of dishonesty/deceit that may or may not be true.

It's really a dumb prank no matter how you look at it. Anybody with an ounce of common sense would realize immediately that there is no way that Marco Rubio, or any presidential candidate, would make a derogatory comment about the Bible.

This just makes the perpetrator look petty and childish.

Cruz really needs to get control of his campaign.

I think you only need to look at some of the venomous articles here from HuffPo, Slate, Salon, NR and other venues by a few Cruz supporters here to see why.

I like Ted Cruz and think he is a capable and decent man but there are some of his supporters that have developed such an irrational fixation on trashing anyone that opposes him in any way possible. They revel in it and they aren’t going to quit until Ted is overcome by Rubio and forced out.

I truly believe they hate Trump so bad that they will continue until Rubio takes out Ted, and then they’ll champion Rubio to get Trump. They’ll not stop.

CanuckTed has always been a slimey, despicable politician who will say or do anything.

Simply put, CanuckTed is getting exposed or, as someone once elegantly stated...

“He is exactly who we thought he was”

h/t Denny Greene

btw, CanuckTed is campaigning with that lunatic Glenn Beck again in NV - “birds of a feather...”.

So Cruz’s staff makes a mistake relaying an incorrect media report and apologizes immediatly... Trump spreads lies of his own making and doubles down. Interesting display of character by each candidate.

I’m going to give Cruz the benefit of the doubt and say that these repeated missteps are mistakes by his staffers and not by him. But he should have done a better job of choosing his staff.

I used to think Cruz was a standup guy. No more. Once again he lies before voting and apologizes after the votes are counted. Disgraceful.

Beck is fasting for Cruz, and Cruz is still spreading lies. Good grief.

Well, at least it’s nice to have a candidate that’s willing to apologize for something, as oppose to one who apologizes for nothing, not even to God.

Look. I love Cruz. I love what he stands for.

But this has been one of the worst-run campaigns I have seen in a while.

Dude needs to get back to God.

He may have irrepairably damaged a possible SCOTUS appointment in 2017.

If Ted Cruz can’t even manage his campaign how is he going to manage a country?

Cruz has surrounded himself with sleazebags. I keep saying he is NOT the Cruz that campaigned in Texas. I wonder why Cruz supporters don’t demand he change tactics and get a cleaner bunch of staff on board!?!

How many of these missteps will it take? Cruz’s message is not going to get out if his campaign keeps him wallowing in this kind of junk.

Ok, either Cruz is orchestrating these dirty tactics, which says something about his real character or his staff is out of control which is indicative of his poor leadership ability. So be honest. Why vote for him?

Dishonest liar is the common trait among Ted, his staff and supporters.

They are reaching out to the Rubio campaign in all likelihood.

Will it be Cruz/Rubio or Rubio/Cruz?

We know that Cruz first met with Trump. Then he tried to deal with Carson in a broom closet.

Now, this could be an attempt to open dialogue with Rubio.

Cruz won’t get to host “The Apprentice”, but he might just get looked at for, “Let’s Make a Deal”.
