The Chris McDaniel affair was really bad business, but you may find that this link will help shed more light on Ted Cruz’s alleged role in same:

Notice especially the gulf between Cruz’s staffer’s characterization (with data points) of Cruz’s role on the NRSC, and the recharacterization of it by (faceless) “professionals” and “consultants”.
Notice also the strong implication that nobody on the committee was *running* the committee, that decisions were being taken or reviewed elsewhere: see the reaction to Cruz’s finding assistance for Tea Party challengers and the reaction of other incumbents (proving the NRSC is an incumbents-only slush fund).
Hope this helps.
There is a current McDaniels happening now, and Cruz is up to his neck in it. It was blatant to anyone with eyes on Thursday. Romney/McCain/Rubio/Cruz all buddies.
Thanks, it does.
He did help some, but then capitulated to the PTB’s and held back his support for Tea Party types.
And gave a bunch of money to the committee that tied his hands and stopped helping the org that was helping beat the eGOP incumbents.
