“Now, you want to trump Trump on immigration”
Still winning!
Who cares? This is over . PRESIDENT TRUMP!!
“This is the lie Ted’s campaign is built on, and Rand touched upon it,” Rubio said during the debate. “That he is the most conservative guy and everybody else is a RINO. The truth is, Ted, throughout this campaign, you’ve been willing to do or say anything in order to get votes.”
Ouch!
It didn’t work, though. Cruz did a great job of explaining that.
That choice of “smooth” was brilliant on Ted’s part. It subtly says Marco is slick. Which is true.
And frankly, a lot of the supporters are no better. Support anyone other than someone's preferred candidate, and you're somehow not a conservative. It's become a joke.
Well, I'm getting old enough that I might be able to go with a "pox on all their houses". Might as well at least get a laugh out of everyone pointing fingers at each other wondering why a Democrat won yet again.
Trump was smart to sit out this debate. For any hits he got he'll respond tomorrow on Twitter.
But more than that, Rubio and Fox hurt Cruz. He's bleeding right now and I'm betting he wishes Trump was at the debate to take heat off him. And, short of that, I'm betting he wishes he too had sat it out.
That video montage Kelly showed (and they probably had a different one for Trump but couldn't use it), followed by Rubio's passionate, rapid fire accusations had Cruz on his heels.
It was unfair as hell and that's why Trump was not there.
Rubio up 3 points, Cruz down 4.
Paul up 3.
Surprisingly, and thankfully it does not matter, but Bush up 3.
All from the undecideds except for Cruz's loss.
Cruz, who put forth an amendment to the immigration reform bill Rubio helped author in 2013, insists that it was designed as a "poison pill" to kill the bill, though at the time Cruz indicated he wanted the overall measure to pass.He admits to lying. So was he lying then or is he lying now.
Now, the next time, if there ever is a next time, no one will know if his intent is genuine or if he's lying once again.
At this point four years ago, Gingrich and Paul led in Iowa. Santorum won the state, and Romney came in second.
Santorum had been running a poor fourth, at best — lower in some polls.
Paul, Rubio gang up on Cruz
They were so mean to beat up on our Canadian guest. What do they want to do, start a war with Canada?
Saw a clip of Cruz telling Megoon that if she didn’t stop with the pit against questions he’d have to leave! Goodness!
