You have the same blind adoration for Ted that many had and have for Obama.

Show me where my facts are wrong?

Re: Sen. Ted Cruz Makes It Official
According to Limbaugh, however, there are reports that the Rubio campaign is just as much to blame for spreading these rumors, trying to convince Carson supporters vote for Rubio.

Conservative values eh Cruz? Lie, steal votes and then blame someone else. Nice. Sounds like a Trump move.

Except your post is 100% wrong. Have you actually read the story, or just getting info from Trump and Carson?

Did Nighthawk delete his post? I will respond to that using your post.
First let me put up this clip of Ben Carson at a Presser today:
"Your campaign told the Press."
This is the thing, Mark Levin is playing the CNN clip with Jake Tapper and his sidekick furthering the narrative that Carson is dropping out. He makes the excellent point that even FOX NEWS is not even playing it and is blaming Ted Cruz. They want Rubio to sit on the sideline grinning.
Little bit or a rant, of course, but his points are good and he plays the Tapper audio:

Heres an interesting thought. Would Donald pull votes off of Cruz OR off of Hillary? The Donald probably isn't getting the conservative vote anyway, especially not as a 3rd party. He may get some center-right votes, but I could see him getting more center-left votes and hurting Hillary, if he runs 3rd party. He's showing his liberalism now, and starting to run a very Obama-Clintonesque campaign. I may be wrong, but if we had a 3 way general of Cruz-Trump-Clinton, I like Cruz' chances.
*BUT* I wonder aloud *IF* Cruz wins the nomination if the GOP leadership doesn't secretly tell Donald he's under no obligation to support the nominee, hint, hint.

I could see him hurting Hillary if he ran 3rd party. However, he has pretty high unfavorable ratings, and that showed in Iowa. I think he knows that. And, yes, he is running a very leftist campaign.
Many in the GOPe have said they would rather have Hillary than Ted. I think that's just talk to keep his polling down.
Ted's example of filibustering the ACA shows that he won't be making deals, and his calling out McConnell for lying with back rooms dealing on the TPA shows that he won't be making deals. They don't like that, BUT if the grassroots can pull him over the finish line, I believe the GOP will get behind him. There's just something about him. I believe he can win this.

Re: Sen. Ted Cruz Makes It Official
Ben Carson’s N.H. super PAC staffers quit to volunteer for Ted Cruz: report
“We hold Dr. Carson in the highest regard,” Mr. Sickles told the station. “This is a man we revere, but we think it is important that our party nominate a conservative and get behind a single conservative who can win, and we strongly believe that candidate is Ted Cruz.”
