Ted Cruz super PACs: A new era of political fundraising
MJ Lee and Jeremy Diamond, CNN
Ted Cruz backers have ushered in a new era for super PACs.
Supporters of the Texas Republican presidential candidate made a bombshell announcement this week — that a network of four affiliated super PACs will have raised an eye-popping $31 million by the end of the week. The disclosure, coming within weeks of Cruz launching his campaign for president, has sent deep ripples through the political fundraising world.
The idea of not one, but multiple, affiliated super PACs ostensibly working together to haul in donations for the same presidential candidate is unprecedented, campaign finance experts say.
Super PACs? Interesting how CNN exhibited virtually no interest in Barack Obama's 2008 and 2012 money-laundering websites.
Is Ted Cruz Latino enough?
Maria Recio, McClatchy Washington Bureau
Ted Cruz has a Latino name. He has a Latino background. And he’s one of the few Latinos to have ever run for the presidential nomination of a major party.
But is he Latino enough?
Somehow I don't see anyone questioning whether a Democrat is "Latino enough".
