Everyone is piling on Ted Cruz for running a dirty campaign.\u00a0 It turns out that the Rubio campaign was doing the exact same thing.\u00a0 Jeb Bush and the other guys pulling about 2% would have definitely done the same thing, if they had figured it out in time.\u00a0 At least Cruz had the decency to own up to it and apologize.\u00a0 We can\u2019t even imagine Donald Trump doing that.\u00a0 If Trump and Rubio and the irrelevants \u00a0try to dump on Cruz about this during the debate Saturday night it could backfire big time.\u00a0 Cruz is extremely good at handing this kind of thing, especially when he knows it is coming.<\/p>\n

Ben Carson is the one who created the rumor by his own comments.\u00a0 That is why the rumor started.\u00a0 Carson was sounding like someone ready to call it a day. \u00a0The press picked up on it.\u00a0 Who can blame them when Rand Paul, Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum all folded their tents.\u00a0 I think it is entirely possible that Ben Carson was <\/strong>seriously considering ending his campaign, until he learned that he did better than expected in Iowa.<\/p>\n

Perhaps Rush Limbaugh said it best.\u00a0 When asked why the Cruz campaign is being attacked from all sides on this while Rubio is ignored:<\/p>\n

\u201cCruz is the frontrunner!\u201d\u00a0 \u201cThey don\u2019t think they can go after him on issues.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Forget the media spin.\u00a0 People are attacking Cruz because Cruz is winning.\u00a0 There are worst things than a candidate dedicated to doing whatever it takes to win an election. \u00a0Actually, it is about time we picked someone readying, willing and able to take on a fight.\u00a0 \u00a0The most unethical thing a Republican candidate can do is lose to someone like Hillary Clinton of Bernie Sanders.\u00a0 Nice guys don\u2019t finish last, they just finish second and inflect the country with President Barack Obama. \u00a0John McCain and Mitt Romney rain nice pleasant campaigns.\u00a0 The results were catastrophic.<\/p>\n

Why would we count on the main stream media to tell us which candidate is most electable.\u00a0 Haven\u2019t we made that mistake too many times before.\u00a0 Perhaps the most electable candidate is not the guy who flashes the most charm.\u00a0 It is the guy ready, willing and able to throw a few elbows.<\/p>\n
