Is the Rubio Campaign Pushing Rumors?
Conservative Review ^ | Feb 25, 2016 | CR Wire

Posted on 02/25/2016 4:03:00 PM PST by JSDude1

A recent story from National Review made headlines by suggesting that some of Sen. Ted Cruz’s heaviest backers were beginning to court the Rubio campaign about switching their endorsements.

The evangelical leaders quoted in the National Review story were quick to denounce these rumors as baseless.

Several of these men, members of “the GROUP,” gave statements to Conservative HQ reiterating their loyalty to the Cruz campaign.

Richard Viguerie: “The idea that conservatives will shift their support from Cruz to Rubio is preposterous given Marco Rubio’s many betrayals of the conservative movement going back to when he served in the Florida House,” observed Viguerie. “Senator Rubio’s support for amnesty for illegal aliens, his support for the Obama-Hillary Clinton disasters in the Middle East, and his long record of supporting big spending and intrusive government has rendered him unacceptable to key elements of the conservative coalition that elected Ronald Reagan and powered Republicans to historic victories in the 2010 and 2014 elections.” - See more at: https://www.conservativereview.com/commentary/2016/02/rubio-campaign-rumors-swirling#sthash.38qzevli.dpuf

Oh, no. Surely pure as the driven snow Rubio wouldn’t do anything underhanded. Self righteous jerk called Cruz a liar for correctly stating Rubio’s immigration record.

Why Cruz has not aggressively attacked Rubio is a mystery to me.
Maybe his donors and puppet masters have told him to lay off Rubio.

“Well, there’s the rumor that Marco Rubio is gay. Ever since I heard that one I can’t help but think Rubio is gay every time I hear him (speak).”

Just watch him...it’s not to figure out which side of the plate he bats on.
