Levin needs to stop pretending to be impartial and just come out and endorse Cruz. Levin calls everyone out for everything, but he’s so in the tank for Cruz it’s ridiculous. But you see Levin can’t do that because he needs a listening audience that’s not just Cruz supporters. So if Levin was intellectually honest with himself and his listeners he’d just endorse Cruz. It was just laughable listening to Levin lecture Trump on economics.

You're absolutely right. I sent this email to Rush today, and should have CCed Levin, they both are in the tank for Cruz:

Yo, Rush, a little clarity for your obvious Cruz support...

Would the chronology make it clearer for you:

Cruz describes trump and carson exactly how liberals and media describe them -- without gravitas and of poor judgment. Only Cruz does this behind closed doors. You've heard of behind closed doors, haven't you, Rush? It's where politicians let their true selves shine ... and sell their souls.

Trump, on the other hand, full frontal fearlessly - to the point of jittering nerves. EVERYWHERE.

When asked about his statements about Trump, Cruz simply lied and said he never said that - in a truly weasley way that Hillary and all politicians would admire - he said it was an Nyt article with anonymous sources. Rather than coming out and denying it clearly without a doubt and unequivocally. You know, like Trump would do.

HOWEVER when Trump quotes the same kind of innocuous comments re Cruz that the elite and media say about him all the time, Trump is the one using leftist tactics. And is somehow sullied where Cruz is the great conservative hope. NOT.

Come on, Rush, you can do better or maybe you can't anymore - either way, your listeners who are Trump supporters aren't dumb. They will figure it out. In the meantime, make amends.

Have you ever stopped to think about how different this country would be today if Newt had been elected? Levin savaged him, too.

I would say Rush and Mark are in the tank.

For conservative principles and ideas.

Only Cruz does this behind closed doors.

Cruz has been off the media's radar. They have basically ignored him. Now that he seems to be in a solid 2nd place, the media are starting to rev up their opposition research machines.

The 'insider' who gave the media Cruz quotes from a private fundraiser supposedly has more quotes coming soon. Likely, the media have other spies and other inside info.

If Cruz is turning moderate in the fundraisers, that is going to tarnish his conservative credentials. How many other Republicans have run on claims of being conservative only to turn moderate as soon as they crossed the Potomac? Answer: Most of the Republicans on Capitol Hill.
