Mysterious Anti-Ted Cruz Super PAC Revealed To Be Funded By National Democratic Group
2:13 PM 12/07/2018 | Politics
 

A super PAC that spent millions attacking Republican Sen. Ted Cruz during the midterm election was revealed Thursday to be funded almost entirely by Washington, D.C., Democrats.

The Texas Forever PAC, which spent $2.3 million on last-minute anti-Cruz attack ads, was funded by the Senate Majority PAC except for $10,000, according to Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings in December. The Senate Majority PAC has strong ties to Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and fundraises to help Democrats win control of the Senate.

  • Cruz 2016- a Constitutional Conservative at last!
No surprise. And it was quite effective, but not effective enough to meet their goal. Without the unprecedented money spent and non-stop ads, Ted would have won by a much larger margin.
Principles matter. Words matter.

I wonder how much of it O'Rourke pocketed?
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

This breaks campaign finance law. If the public knew about this that election would have turned out differently.

Laws work against Republicans only.  Never mind how much charitable Clinton Foundation cash ended up in Hillary's campaign coffers.
