The Utah elite and the Church are cheap labor express too.

I love the Utahns most of the time, but they love RINOs and the ones that don’t vote Constitution Party.

You should see our Presidential ballot...eye roll.

Any poll that doesn’t show Trump ON TOP by a huge margin is obviously based on fraud.

Don’t make him threaten MORE law-suits!

And will threaten a lawsuit if Don’t Know appears in more polls.

I have consistently said I think Cruz will win TX and UT.

And lose everything else.

Wasn’t Ruby a part-time Mormon when he lived in Vegas?

He knows the secret handshake.

Noooo.... don’t drop out!

The best thing for Trump is a fractured field where his rock solid 30% is a win.

Lets have Cruz, Rubio fight it out, and Carson spoil Cruz, and Kasich spoil Rubio, all the way to the 50 states.

Let Trump run the table!

Wasn’t Ruby a part-time Mormon when he lived in Vegas?
___________________________
Yes. Hate to use the Think Progress article but it covers all of Rubio’s Including Baptists...

But Rubio’s longtime affiliation with Catholicism includes an important asterisk: He, along with his mother and sister, was once a Mormon.
The Rubio family’s brief stint with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) began in the late 1970s, shortly after they moved to Las Vegas, Nevada, where his father landed a job as a bartender. Once there, Rubio’s mother became enamored with the healthy lifestyle embodied by several of their Mormon neighbors, especially their emphasis on family.

“My mother desperately wanted to give her kids a wholesome environment,” he told Christianity Today in 2012. “We had extended family members who were and remain active members of the LDS church, which does provide a very wholesome environment.”

Before long, he, along with his mother and sister, were all baptized into the church, and Rubio joined the Cub Scout pack sponsored by the congregation. He even attended parades commemorating the Mormon exodus to Utah, “where children dressed as early church pioneers and reenacted their journey to the West.”
I immersed myself in LDS theology, and understood it as well as an eight-year-old mind can.

In his book, Rubio describes his mother’s interest in the LDS church as primarily driven by family concerns, noting, “I don’t believe [she] ever really understood Mormon theology.” Rubio, however, took the conversion far more seriously.

“I immersed myself in LDS theology, and understood it as well as an eight-year-old mind can,” he wrote. “Although my school grades were never impressive, I was a voracious reader, and I studied church literature and other sources of information to learn all I could about the church’s teachings.” http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2015/10/09/3710527/marco-rubio-religious-syncretism/

Rubio is kind of an odd duck just out to make a living, I think.

Utah is March 22nd. A month from now. Cruz better worry about a few closer dates before this one.

Get 'tm Ted. It ain't over til it is over.

Send the blowhard Trump packing back to New York where he belongs with his pal Hillary.

The two charlatans can compare war stories.
