Ted Cruz: ‘I’m going to pay to air Jimmy Carter attacking me’

“I’m only thinking about New Hampshire, that’s all”, he said, adding that he did “really well” in Iowa.

After brief remarks, Trump did something he’s largely avoided so far this cycle: take questions from the audience. After that event, Cruz spoke with News 9 and said the media is too focused on what he called “their favorites”, which includes Trump.

“Throughout the course of this campaign, you’ve said some disparaging comments about women, about people from other counties, other religions, and about everybody who’s disagreed with you”, Manzoli said.

“We’re five days out”, a senior Cruz aide said, requesting anonymity in order to talk about internal plans.

Bernie Sanders is receiving the endorsement of Dick Harpootlian, South Carolina’s former state Democratic party chair, in his bid for the White House. “You know what the backbone of our country is?”

Barack Obama over Hillary Clinton in the 2008 election, has known the Clintons for years but says he endorses based on his “gut” feeling, which he had for Obama.

Cruz also used Carter’s statements to his advantage at a New Hampshire town hall on Thursday, where he said that “Jimmy Carter endorsed Donald Trump”, ABC News reported.

Of the candidates vying for second place, John Kasich remains the one with the most room to grow.

Paul suspended his campaign Wednesday.

Rubio is now in second place in the Granite State, according to two recent polls from CNN/WMUR/UNH and University of Massachusetts Lowell, conducted after Monday’s Iowa caucuses.

Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie holds a townhall in Portsmouth, New Hampshire on January 24, 2016.

“He just doesn’t have any experience”, Christie said Thursday on ABC’s Good Morning America.

Last week – before the results in Iowa, where Cruz finished first and Rubio third – Trump was at 31 percent, Cruz 12 percent, Rubio 11 percent, Kasich 11 percent, Bush 8 percent and Christie 7 percent.
