This story made me think of Ted Cruz nude and I threw up in my mouth a little. I'm already quaking in my boots, because stage 2 of these stories usually involves dick pics and I just...can't.

Ted Cruz is just creepy. Who exactly would hit that? A creepy woman?

Now the MSM is reporting on the rumor. NBC national news had Cruz denying the story....and blaming Trump for starting it.

In response to a previous post about Ford, Bush & Bush, there were persistent rumors that George HW Bush had at least one longstanding affair with Jennifer Fitzgerald.

The National Enquirer has Fancy Lawyers who advise them about running stories, which doesn't mean that the stories they run are true, but does mean that the stories generally are sourced in ways that make them more likely to be true than the stories in other tabloids. The gold standard for tabloid journalism? Something like that.
I wouldn't vote for Ted Cruz if he never had sex with anyone, or if he were unfailingly faithful to his wife. Meh.

Anonymous made the threat last week that they had information on Cruz that they would release to the media and social media if he did not drop from the race. They had a video that I saw that said among other things, they did not like what he had done to Carson when he sent out the emails the night before that one election, telling voters that Carson was dropping from the race so vote for Cruz so their vote would not be wasted. They stated other reasons too. I am kind of thinking that this did come from Anonymous and Trump, scummy as he is, had nothing to do with it. There is a link going around FB that has a police report from 2005, on Cruz's wife. That is probably what Trump is threatening to release. The police found her on the side of a busy road and were so concerned about her well being that they took her to a hospital. It sounded like she was possibly very distraught over something. Maybe she found out about an affair? Who knows. I am sure that more will come out as the days go by. At this rate, there won't be any Republicans left to run in the election. Anonymous is also looking for stuff on Trump. It is probably a good thing that Kasich has stayed in the race. He could be the last man standing.

MaryMary! Another of my favorites!
On Ted Cruz, he has the most punchable face ever. I can't believe there are women that want to f*ck him! But alas, power is an aphrodisiac.

I was doing an internship with a Republican politician during the 80s and at that time there were tons of rumors about HW Bush and Reagan's mistresses, although Reagan's was supposed to be very early in his marriage. Likewise, there were stories from staffers about Nixon's mistress. Were they just rumors? Possibly. But back then, there was no social media to provide "proof" with pictures and disgusting stories about blue dresses. George W Bush is one recent president whom I don't ever recall hearing rumors about.

Now The Daily Beast is reporting that is was Marco Rubio who leaked the story to the National Enquirer.

For John Edwards, it was more than career ending. His wife had cancer. To me that is even more assholian. Truly, I don't care who you have slept with. Engaging in an affair during an election cycle shows just how poor of judgement you have. (I don't know if Cruz is active in his affairs, or if these are affairs of the past) For me it's integrity. If they can't honor the most important vow they've ever made, how do we know they're going to honor anything else?
If it's a case where there was a "situation" 30 years ago and they've made amends and been faithful ever since, maybe. I do believe people can change. But when it's somewhat current and multiple women involved? Sorry but I have no sympathy, I don't care who they are.

Sorry, it's Washington Times. It's #2 in the 8 things link that pudgy posted. Oh, yeah. The thing I saw somewhere named 3 of the 5. Their backgrounds are interesting; one on the Trump campaign, one from the Fiorina campaign, one a conservative political writer. That's just asking for trouble. Geez.
