I just learned that Cruz is soliciting for his supporters to pay off Walker’s campaign debt!

http://www.jsonline.com/news/statepolitics/ted-cruz-solicits-donations-to-pay-off-scott-walkers-campaign-debt-b99633949z1-361819941.html

The Texas senator took to Twitter on Sunday to urge his followers to donate money to help retire Walker’s lingering 2016 campaign debts.

“I stand with my friend @Scott Walker & hope you will too!” Cruz tweeted to his “#CruzCrew.”

Cruz then linked to a donation page for Walker’s campaign.

“Your contribution of $10, $35, $50, $100, $250, or more right now will help us pay down this campaign debt and officially close the books on our 2016 campaign,” the website reads. “And if you contribute $30 or more in the next three days, we will send you a limited edition lapel pin.”

Caddell is a solid guy, had been for years. He’s not a raving, lying, scumbag Democrat in the post 1992 mold. He calls them as he sees them.

Nice try with the statement but Trump is not a democrat, and Caddell is barely a Democrat, so it is a stretch to make the comment you did....

He has not worked on a campaign since 1992—24 years.

As per Wikipedia:

n 1988, Caddell left Democratic consulting firm Caddell, Doak and Shrum after what the Washington Post described as an “acrimonious lawsuit.”[3] Republicans would often cite Caddell’s tirades against the Democratic Party when they spoke on the floor of the House and the Senate.[4][5][6]

His analysis on polls and campaign issues often puts him at odds with the current leadership of the Democratic Party. He has been criticized by media watchdogs and columnists for predicting negative consequences for the Democratic Party.[9][10] Critics point out that he has defended the Bush administration by arguing that Republicans did not exploit the issue of gay marriage in the presidential election of 2004.[citation needed] He also denounced Democrats in the House who voted against the Palm Sunday Compromise, which sought to reinstate Terri Schiavo’s feeding tube, as “cold blooded,”[citation needed] and called environmentalism “a conspiracy ‘to basically deconstruct capitalism.’”[1]

Caddell is a regular guest on the Fox News Channel, and he is listed as an official ‘Fox News Contributor’. This has earned him the label of a “Fox News Democrat” by critics such as liberal opinion magazine Salon.com.[1] He has also frequently appeared on the conservative website Ricochet.com discussing politics.[11][12][13]

According to Slate,[14] Caddell was involved in identifying people willing to participate in the 2012 anti-Obama documentary The Hope and the Change, produced by Citizens United.

Campaign style

According to a 1987 profile in the Washington Monthly:

“Caddell believes the key to winning contemporary elections is appealing to ‘alienated’ voters—that ever-growing group of mostly younger voters who are not easily identified as liberal or conservative and don’t trust government, politicians, or the parties. You can’t lure these voters with programs and stands on specific issues, so the theory goes. Rather, you must remain as uncommitted as they are. You lure them by attacking that which caused their alienation: the Establishment. Even if he were inclined to help his candidate address the nation’s substantive problems and articulate a coherent package of solutions, he’d have trouble.”

From the description above, Trump is exactly the candidate Caddell would be behind...not a democrat...not a liberal.
