Political insiders and operatives on Twitter are buzzing about new rumors concerning Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX). This news comes just after the 12th Republican debate which was hosted on CNN, and days before key primaries in Florida and Ohio.
The Stop Trump PAC has been hinting at a major news bombshell for days. But apparently, the supposed news has less to do about Trump than it does about Cruz!
The buzz focuses on Cruz and Tea Party activist Katrina Pierson. Pierson is a former consultant for Cruz’s United States Senate campaign and is now the national spokeswoman for businessman Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, which makes this a particularly uncomfortable situation.
Nothing here as far as I can see. The "buzz" is people tweeting and gossiping? I have no dog in this hunt. I don't like Cruz. I don't like Trump. And I don't like Pierson. Not sure what we're supposed to see here.
I think it is fair to say that Cruz is probably gay, and there is nothing wrong with that, but it would be bad for his campaign. These rumors dont touch on this issue.
The question is how it scales relative to Bill Clinton's scandals.
No, it is totally irrelevant. Cruz made the decision to recruit evangelicals based on his Christian values for family. Having a woman on the side is not a Christian value.
As we know, his wife struggles with depression, was found in the car on the side of the highway with her face in her hands and considered a risk to herself. Cops Found Ted Cruz's Wife on Roadside, Thought She Was a Danger to Herself - Inside Edition It made me think that it might not be the happy home that Cruz was playing it out to be. As we know, he lies and cheats in other venues and that those that promote "holier than thou" all too often see themselves as above Biblical law. Hopefully this is not true for the sake of his wife and children.

Cruz puts himself out there as a 'holier than thou' candidate, reminiscent to me of Pat Robertson's Moral Majority campaign in the '90's.
Yes, the "holier than thou" candidate, you got it. Sadly, those types usually see themselves as above Biblical Law or I am guessing that Cruz is of that faith that believes if you accept Jesus as God that you assure yourself a place in Heaven and that "works" are irrelevant. My thought has always been that if the "holier than thous" are going to be dominating Heaven, I'd as soon not go and have to put up with them for eternity.
Ted Cruz says he is on his knees every morning and I am guessing asking forgiveness for his sins. If one ends up in the position of constantly asking for forgiveness, the way I understand it, their faith doesn't amount to much.
Again, I hope it isn't true for the sake of his wife and children. Gosh, they have to be embarrassed enough by the way he has ran his campaign.
I would love to see Hillary try to use this against him. Maybe Ted's wife can come out and say she's not some kind of Tammy Wynette standing by her man.
C'mon, the worst thing about the rumor is the possibility of an intra-campaign relationship and you know, debate secrets and campaign tactics being leaked to the enemy.
But seriously, I don't believe it for a minute. Ted Cruz? Ew.
