U.S. Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky pulled out of the Republican race after voters shunned his libertarian campaign promises of small government and a hands-off foreign policy.

The impetus for Trump’s fraud accusation appeared to be an erroneous claim from Cruz’s campaign Monday night during the caucuses that Ben Carson was poised to drop out of the race. The billionaire businessman placed second behind the conservative Texas senator.
Carson fingered the Cruz campaign as the source of the rumors he was dropping out and said its shady tactics ruined his chances in Iowa during an interview with “Fox and Friends”. “Also, Cruz sent out a VOTER VIOLATION certificate to thousands of voters”.
Polls show Mr Sanders leading by double digits in New Hampshire, which neighbours Vermont. In one quickly deleted tweet, he said Cruz “illegally stole” his win in Iowa.
“Ted Cruz didn’t win Iowa, he stole it. That is why all of the polls were so wrong and why he got far more votes than anticipated”. And after initially downplaying the criticism, Cruz publicly apologized to the Carson campaign.
New Hampshire is the second in a series of state-by-state nominating contests to decide who will be each party’s candidate for president in November.
“Reality has hit the reality star”, Tyler said. “There are support groups for Twitter addiction; perhaps he should find his local chapter”.
“I have unlimited money and we’re long-term”, he said on NBC’s “Today” program.
“During primetime of the Iowa Caucus, Cruz put out a release that @RealBenCarson was quitting the race, and to caucus (or vote) for Cruz”. He also bemoaned “dirty tricks” employed in the caucuses, without assigning blame to any other campaign in particular.

The breaking news referred to an article from CNN announcing Carson would take a campaign break by flying to Florida late Monday, rather than traveling immediately to New Hampshire or SC where the next primaries are scheduled. “I know some people have been thinking that Trump is a wolf in sheep’s clothing with all these previous quotes people can produce of him supporting liberal causes and liberal Democrat candidates and so forth, but I tell you, when I see him protesting the results of an election, that to me erases any fear that he might be an establishment guy ’cause, let’s face it, establishment Republicans never complain about anything anybody does to ’em”. And I think I know why.
