From the article:

The conversation lasted so long that it bled into Carsons speaking time at the convention, leaving members of his campaign having to knock on the door to get him ready.

After Carson spoke at the convention, and saw Cruz in the hallway again, Cruz didnt even look at Carson, according to the latter’s campaign.

There was a political play there and it didnt work for them, a Republican operative close to the campaign told The Daily Beast. The meeting didnt go as well as Cruz wanted it to go. Carson had a smile on his face and was looking right at him.

When reached for comment, Rick Tyler, a spokesman for Cruzs campaign, said, Yes, they had a good visit.

"There was a political play there and it didnt work for them, a Republican operative close to the campaign told The Daily Beast. The meeting didnt go as well as Cruz wanted it to go. Carson had a smile on his face and was looking right at him."

Personally, it tells me a whole lot more about Carson's faith and personality (vindictive? unforgiving?) than it does about Cruz. Even if Cruz were in the wrong, or Carson considered Cruz's explanation, apology, or recompense inadequate, as a Christian, Carson should have accepted Cruz's apology.

Note to Trump supporters: I said "as a Christian" - that's my perspective. Just because I advocate Christian morals and behavior doesn't "prove" that I'm a Cruz supporter.

I'm consistently Christian BEFORE I'm consistently conservative.
