1. I'm not a Cruz supporter, so no response to your hypothetical question

2. Do you have any issues with Donald's multiple adulteries?

WADR, Trump has openly and proudly admitted to multiple affairs with married women. His first marriage ended due to his affair with a woman who was 17 years younger than him. He's also owned a strip club and casino. So why are people on AFF supporting Trump?

That said, because of Cruz's outright and angry denial of the accusations...I would be very disappointed and not support his candidacy any more.

Re: If Cruz has been having affairs....

Trump's history is well known to all. He has never tried to hide it.

Cruz has a different presentation. And if his presentation turns out to be false, then that makes him a hypocrite. Most people aren't shocked at adultery. But they do get angry about an adulterer who pretends to be otherwise.

Cruz needs to sue the NE for slander, libel, and defamation.

He is threatening to sue, right? Right?

Hey, why get mad a t me? I'm just wondering if the purists on here will hold their man to the same standards they hold Trump to. At least one will by his post above.

Yes, I am very troubled by Trump's sexual sins.

I like Bernie, but not his socialism.

So it's okay to have affairs with other married women as long as you don't hide it?

I do agree that Cruz's angry and outright denial of these affairs would make him a hypocrite, and his supporters would rightly vanish if this turns out to be true.

Haven't seen any mention of it. Doesn't mean the rumors are true though.

*IF* (a huge if) these allegations were even partly true (even 1 out of 5), I would not support Cruz. He is running not only as a constitutionalist, but as Christian (however that may be interpreted in politics). He goes around quoting scripture, making Biblical references, and talking about his faith.

He constantly wins votes from people in the "shares my values" demographic. If this were true, he wouldn't share my values, and I bet his overall polling would go to single digits. BUT so far nothibg has suggested that.

Though its concerning, because typically on this subject, wheres theres smoke theres fire, and the two places thats most true is in politics and (sadly) in religion. If untrue, Cruz should sue NE. Thats a lawsuit worth filing.
