WOW! Cruz is even more sleazy than I expected.
There it is.
Lyin’ Ted.
Creating Monday’s news cycle ...
“From what I hear, he and his campaign went out and bought the cover shoot”
Liz Mair has been connected to the Cruz campaign in the past. Is she not the one who went to the Carly campaign along with the $500K? I am going to need a score card.
So this “bought rights to the picture” went from an obscure blog to the Donald himself mentioning it...
A PAC would not dare run a “copyrighted photo” without paying for permission and the fingerprints will go right back to the Cruz campaign and his campaign manager I would be willing to bet dollars to donuts...

Lying Ted. Trump sure has a way of seeing through people...
Ms “no stamina” is next.
This need to be posted on every vanity for Cruz threads.
Jeff Roe Teds campaign manager bought the rights from GQ. If Ted didn’t know he should have
Ted Cruz: The politics of deflection.
That's what I'm looking for, is confirmation of that. I've seen tweets and FR posts, but nothing firm. Of course, now that Trump himself said it, maybe there will be confirmation from some source. Maybe someone here will have the link to something firm. By now it may be out there for all I know, I just haven't seen it.
“Our Principles PAC” who bought the ad:
Total For Democrats: $0
Total Against Democrats: $0
Total For Republicans: $0
Total Against Republicans: $13,999,698
The group, which is called Our Principles PAC, is founded by Katie Packer, a veteran Republican strategist who served as deputy campaign manager on Mitt Romney’s 2012 presidential campaign.
big fanfare.... your new first Lady!
or... sighs.. depressed voice... you could vote for Ted Cruz
Whatever Lyin’ Trump says you take with a planet of salt.
Ted is very desperate and will do anything to win. He knew the bomb was ready to drop from the Enquirer and needed to deflect attention. He already had Utah in the bag, so the photo was not issued to pick up more Mormon votes.
This charade of an primary election is a joke.The race is such a lopsided win for Trump that it’s ludicrous to suggest otherwise.
Team Cruz is only efficient in ferreting out wins in a few caucus states known for their oddball and malleable vote counting methods.
Cruz won:
Virgin Islands by 30 votes
Wyoming by 480 votes
Alaska by 600 votes
Maine by 2,500.
Here are the rounded total votes Cruz won in his 8/9 winning states.
Virgin Isl 200 people
Wyoming 620 people
Alaska 8,400
Maine 8,500
Kansas 35,000
Iowa 52,000
Utah 122,00
Okie 158,000
Wow, Ted won eight states totaling 385,000 votes.
If it wasn’t for his Texas win 1,239,393, he’d have nothing but a pile of beans in his hand.
This is clearly NOT an appealing candidate in so many ways.
He’s a candidate guaranteed to lose a national election.
Trump won 21 states and most by tens & hundreds of thousands of votes.
The millions at his rallies voted. Over six million voted for those wins in those states!
If it was a cover story for a publicly sold magazine then what’s the big deal anyway? Is it only a sleazy photo if used for political purposes? or is the picture itself sleazy? Is it Ok to pose nude for money but not Ok to use that same ad in a political campaign?
I would advise any of my daughters against posing nude because I think that it devalues them as human beings and turns them into sex objects. Is it right for Cruz to exploit it politically. No, but was it a smart thing to do in the first place?
Cruz could have got by running the photo once with at the most a slap on the wrist from whoever owned the rights to the photo.
So why buy the rights?
My guess is because he planned to run it over and over.
What Trump had better do is find out if he has bought the rights to any others.
My guess is that during the time when these photo sessions are in session, there are lots of photos taken, some of which the model intends to be destroyed: bad pose, unintentional exposure, whatever.
Trump should try to find out of any exist and who has them.
No wonder Cruz is so unpopular among those who know him best.
And we were gullible enough to think that it was for his politics alone.
Trump says so, therefore it must be true.
