I have an idea. Let’s all vote for the man who can’t wait to make deals with Communists Pelosi and Schumer! That’ll make America GREAT AGAIN!!
Team Ted lied. Own it.
Check out the video in @CNNPolitics’s Tweet: https://twitter.com/CNNPolitics/status/696194244470509569?s=09
I'd be frustrated and trying to find someone to blame too if I were lead on, for weeks to believe my guy was "going to win - YUGE and then he lost!
Reality bites again!
And you Cruz worhippers are so sad to defend a lie. Even Cruz admitted it was wrong but supporters maintain the lie is ok because it is alright to you to cheat someone who isn’t winning. Conditional honesty is not honesty. You would be totally incensed if it had been done to Cruz.
Nothing like blaming the victim for the cheating scandal. Some people are just shameless.
Actually the Rubio and Paul campaign also pushed the CNN story hard. They get a pass with the media.
The CNN story was accurate. Carson didn’t campaign in N.H. and only showed up for the debate. Of course, he needed someone to drag his butt out onto the stage and that was someone else’s fault, too.
So are you. But that doesn't stop you from working your little fingers to nubs trying to convince everyone this non-issue matters.
The only thing Cruz apologized for is that he wished his campaign had followed up later when CNN issued a correction. Rubio and Paul’s campaigns also pushed the story, but since they didn’t win, they got a pass.
I guess Carson campaign precinct captains are mouth breathers incapable of correcting the info.
CNN’s official version:

The CNN link is BS.
My goodness....I hope Trump doesn’t make a sudden right turn or you will break your nose....
Facts are stubborn things.
How people can deny the truth is unbelievable.
Produce the lie with direct quotes. I'll look for your response.
Cruz is starting to sound like George Allen with his idiotic apologies. There is no need for apologies. I’d have interpreted Carson’s itinerary as a signal that his campaign is moribund. Carson’s “change of clothes” excuse is bizarre.
I agree that most blogs are useless, but this one is not particularly more worthless than, say, conservative nuthouse (you know which one I’m talking about).
Unfortunately for CNN, the original clips still exist and they support every word Cruz said.
Not only could CNN probably have verified Carson rumor in seconds like it should have and Cruz should have, but timing of CNN rumor was very suspicious imo, as if Cruz was expecting it.
The lie is that you Cruz supporters insist that against all evidence to the contrary that the Cruz campaign didn’t lie about Carson. And worse as Christians you say the lie is ok anyway because Carson isn’t polling well. Cruz campaign did lie.
This should be a non issue, but I guess we will keep the daggers out until all are dead and we can give the crown to Bernie or Hill.
However, I will make one point, since it has been made over and over again about Trump losing because he is blaming Cruz for his loss.
For me to have to believe that, that is a tacit admission that his voter base is smaller than he claims and Carson’s voters would have massively migrated to Cruz, as their second choice.
Do you really want to go there?
