Sorry, Charlie, but people should be ashamed if they’re not voting. I don’t care who they vote for or if they write in their dog. But democracy dies when people don’t show up and participate in it.

I wonder how the neighbor who got an F rating will treat the neighbor who got an A rating.

Give it up. Everyone reading things your opinion is desperate and dumb. Ratting out your voter status to your neighbors is not cool.

There are many things that are of public record that your neighbor prefers not be broadcast to the neighborhood such as your voting record or a Notice of Default on your mortgage.

Perfectly legal to let the neighbors know but not unseemly nonetheless.

If you read the article, even Rick Wilson, who is a notorious dirty campaigner stated that “these kind of mailers are fraught with risk,” said Republican media strategist Rick Wilson, who has done some work for a Rubio Super PAC. “They do work, but the social pressure stuff has got to be subtle. This, on the other hand, is like a sledgehammer.”

Ted Cruz could use some assistance with his “image”; his campaign manager and friends did not serve Ted well in this instance.

I would suspect that Robert Mercer, who owns Cambridge Analytica is behind some of this creepy crap; he is known as a technology geek with no emotional intelligence. The downside of being backed by Single Donor Super Pac’s who think they know best, is on display. Ted is at the mercy of “the money”. That is what this looks like to me.

I, personally, do not want Ted Cruz destroyed, no matter who I vote for in the primary. For Mercer, Ted is just a tool to get his tax problems solved. What a scoundrel!

What would you have said if Trump had done this?

***Sorry, Charlie, but people should be ashamed if they’re not voting.***

You have a right to vote not an obligation. You may disagree, I may disagree, but we do still have a few freedoms left.

Cruz “shaming” people to vote for him is akin to what Black leaders do to Black people if they vote anything other than Democrat. It was stupid to do, and he’s done.

You should stop digging that hole.
