Monday on his radio show, Limbaugh argued that Cruz is “positioned…ideally” and if something happens to Trump, “We’re not shut out here.”
Limbaugh praised Cruz, “We still have someone in our roster that opposes every bit of the Democrat agenda, perhaps more than anybody else in the race and that’s Cruz. I mean Cruz does not have in his record any statement like Trump does of having supported certain things the Democrats have done. Cruz is inarguably thoroughbred conservative.”
Rush Limbaugh: I think that there is a dark horse in this entire thing, and I think there is one candidate who is positioned here. Now I know that it’s getting late, Trump has had the lead for 100 days here or more. Well he’s been in the lead ever since he’s got in. And there now fewer days until Iowa that he has been in the lead. I mean he is over the hump in that regard. but there is still a long way to go, it is politics. Any number of unforeseen, unpredictable events are potentially out there. And there has been somebody trucking along here steady-eddy that has continued to be who he is and continues to lay down foundational markers for himself and that’s Ted Cruz. And I think Ted Cruz is, is positioned, I would say ideally.
I mean, I’m sure, Cruz would love to be in the top two, top three here but of all the others in the race, you take Trump and Carson here and they’re at number one and number two. Carson has pulled ahead of Trump even in Iowa now in two polls. But overall Trump leads and his lead continues to expand but what if it doesn’t? What if something happens? We’re not shut out here. We still have someone in our roster that opposes every bit of the Democrat agenda, perhaps more than anybody else in the race and that’s Cruz.
I mean Cruz does not have in his record any statement, like Trump does, of having supported certain things the Democrats have done. Cruz is inarguably thoroughbred conservative.
>>I think it’s bad karma to say “I support Trump right now, but if he falters, I hope Cruz can step his game up to pick up the torch and run with it.”
I watched him in Jacksonville on Saturday. He is not going to falter. He is in this to win, and this is a guy who wins. His story about buying Doral was exactly what America needs to hear and understand. We need to start thinking like that as a nation. He plans to adjust our attitude with regards to taking advantage of our position as the greatest nation EVER so we won’t feel guilty about becoming even greater.
Problem is, once all those illegals are given blanket amnesty, the damage has been done.
Well, Paul Ryan’s idea of amnesty, so far, has been Green cards, no health care or voting.
Nah. I think you’ll find that most of us Trumbots support Cruz, too. In fact, I slightly prefer Cruz - if only he’d get some momentum going!
Ryan’s plan provides a pathway to citizenship for all illegals.
I didn’t know that. That is even more depressing.
