For one, if it was not clear before, Cruz is making himself entirely unacceptable to all but “very conservative†Republicans. Moreover, he is making himself noncompetitive in a general election context. Even before this latest spasm of extremism, Cruz does worse against Hillary Clinton than do all the other GOP candidates, except Trump. Combined with his vehement opposition to gay marriage (even advocating election of Supreme Court justices, as if that would improve his chances of reversing the court’s ruling), opposition to abortion even in cases of rape and incest, his leadership in the government shutdown and the absence of a positive economic agenda evidencing concern for middle-class and working-class voters, Cruz has made himself into the poster child for right-wing extremism, a perfect target for the Clinton attack machine.

Queen of the Neocons.
Jenifer Rubin - nuff said
By their actions, they tell us who they fear the most.
Nice try, Jen, but nobody reads your crap.
Jennifer Rubin is the house “conservative” at the Washington Post “newspaper”. She is the David Brock for the “newspaper” called the Post and is liberal on every issue except using the US Army to intervene abroad in yet another fuzzy foreign adventure with crackpot justifications. Sort of a female Lindsay Graham or perhaps Lindsay Graham is a male Jennifer Rubin.
I appreciate Jenny Poo’sconcern for Sen Ted.
Now Jenny, go make me a sandwich.
OBSESSED with Cruz.
Apparently Cruz is living rent free in Rubin’s heads these days.
Jennifer please stop lying to the American people and admit you are a far far left Democrat who was only put into this position so the Wash Po could lie that they had a “Conservative” on the staff.
She acts like Ted Cruz stood her up for the prom.
LOL
There’s nothing “conservative” about her. Her words could have been written by Debbie Washerwoman Schultz or Bernie Sanders. She’s a Leftist pamphleteer writing for a Leftist rag at the direction of the Uniparty.
In other words, she’s a dishonest hack.
She used to ignore him. Then she downplayed him. Now she’s flailing.
As Lindseys and Bobbies and Ricks and Scotts exit, I start to think of Jennifer as the last little Indian in Agatha Christie’s “Ten Little Indians/And Then There Were None”. Poor Jennifer, walking into the room on the empty island, knowing only Cruz/Trump are left for the nomination, facing a noose, and being invited to use it.
The mainstream media and the ruling elites are besides themselves...NONE of their playbooks are working any longer.
Wait. I'm confused. Are you saying there's such thing as an honest hack?
All those things sound good to me.
Is this person related to Robert Rubin by any chance?
Every time Hillary opens her mouth it just gets worse. First she decided it would be a good thing to advocate for victims of sexual abuse. OOOOPs.
Then she claims ISIS is using Donald Trump in a recruiting video. Turns out that’s a lie but they did use another prominent person: Bill Clinton.
[W]e must remain a nation of laws. We cannot tolerate illegal immigration and we must stop it. For years ... Washington talked tough but failed to act .... [O]ur borders might as well not have existed. The border was under-patrolled, and what patrols there were, were under-equipped. Drugs flowed freely. Illegal immigration was rampant. Criminal immigrants, deported after committing crimes in America, returned the very next day to commit crimes again.
A hack is just a writer for hire.
In this case I think they are calling her writing dishonest and banal.
