Apparently Cruz has now self identified as dishonest as illary and is therefore a suitable stand-in. Anyone curious if Goldman-Sacks will help fund him?

It's possible that your article is a blatant lie, but if it isn't, here is the direct quote from it. I know we have some Ted Cruz fans on this thread - Locogringo is (was?) one. Wonder what if he believes this. Cruz also went on to say that he is “very sorry” that Hillary Clinton seems to be having medical issues, as well as that that’s “one of the worst ways” for a politician to say goodbye to their career. “Still,” he added, “if I was her and I had a choice, I’d go with the health issues because she’s not strong enough to beat Trump when she’s at 100 percent, let alone now. Therefore, I’d like to make it clear: with all due respect to the Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton – if anything should happen to her that prevents her from running against Donald Trump, I agree to take her place and run against him as a full-fledged Democrat.” “And I don’t care that some people would label that as betrayal,” he added. “This country has been through too much for us to let a Donald Trump ruin it. So, if this is what has to be done and if no one else has the guts to do it, let history remember that it was Ted Cruz who sucked it up and took one for the red team. I know it’ll be painful seeing me go, but at the end of the day, we all have to make sacrifices, or else we’ll get nowhere. Besides – Heidi tells me I look dashing in blue, and a smart man always listens to his wife. Who knows, maybe blue has always been my color and I just didn’t see it,” Cruz concluded.

Hi Rayrohn, I liked Ted Cruz and his ideas a lot until he broke his pledge to support the Republican Party nominee and refused to endorse Trump. Having said that, the story that Ted Cruz said he would run as a Democrat if Hillary drops out is completely false. The original source was politicalo.com, which is one of three sites that are notorious for publishing fake news blended with a elements of actual news to make it seem real on the surface.
