Who would pay any attention to this witch?
Well let's find out, Rubin...!
Actually, if you take the 22 who voted w Ted this weekend and you add 7 of the 9 the new GOP Senators, you will find that total is 29 of 54 GOP Senators to be seated in January.
That would be “The majority of the majority”.
Jennifer’s pretty ignorant. The PJ Media article on “Catalist” from a few months back clearly shows that Obama won in 2012 by ditching indies and focusing on driving up his base turnout. It was both cheaper and more effective than moving towards the center.
Another clueless self-proclaimed conservative.
Or Eisenhower, Nixon and both Bush’s. While those men weren’t as conservative as Reagan, by any means, they were portrayed that way in the press, which means most voters assumed they were.
I hope he goes third party. I dont want any part of the establishment. He is the best man for the country. The republican socialists screw the conservatives in primaries that are “winner take all” designed to pop out some socialist like romney with 22% of the vote while the idiot conservative fight it out with 6 candidates. ITS RIGGED!!I dont want to play any more!
The tactic is to inflame the base to motivate them to vote.
Jennifer Rubin is the house “conservative” at the Washington Post, their equivalent (and just as phony) as David Brooks of the NY Times. They put these phonies out to make it appear that they are balanced; far, far less so than Fox News.
This is the Palinization of Cruz. That means I am being Palinized. The republicans lost me last weekend.
The Palinization of Ted Cruz picks up furious pace by the seig-heiling sycophants of the Ruling Class.
Does anyone still not understand that these ‘Republicans” are simply Democrats that have infiltrated the party and the leadership?
We now have a Roman Senate that just funded Caesar.
The Republic is no more.
Does she have anything to write about besides telling us how powerless TC is... lol
She is an obvious fake.
Is Elizabeth “Fauxcahontas” Warren the horse that was made a senator?
I don't think that's true (in fact has been disproved often, e.g., Reagan), and if the assumption is not true, then Rubin's whole argument falls apart.
If Ted Cruz doesn't become president, it won't be because of independents, it'll be because of the GOPe.
And the National Review article she references gives both the Obama 2012 campaign and the Bush 2004 campaign as examples of campaigns that won by appealing to the base rather than moving to the middle. Apparently she forgot those 2 examples - either that or she didn’t read the article.
You noticed that, too? She has stepped-up her column output, it seems, and EVERY ONE that I can find is about how Ted Cruz is already dead-in-the-water, everyone hates him, his poll numbers suck and his halitosis is driving the capitol building mad.
Let them speculate all they want. It proves nothing.
