I think Laura is trying to unite. It isn’t going to happen.

Maybe after everyone's had their fill of blood and entrails.

The childish bickering has been ONE SIDED. Get out of denial.

Time to send Rubio some congratulatory water?

Curious minds want to know...... where could that have come from?

We can get three guesses and the first two don’t count.

Can’t be having any 1 point close calls, then the spit starts coming out like one of them spittin cobras.

BINGO! We have a winner.

And by no means ever count it out.

Can’t happen. According to Trump, Cruz is not eligible.

Here’s my counter offer: Give us Trump or we will give you Clinton and then we can all watch her burn this country to the ground.

Perhaps something good will rise from the ashes.

I think its too late for that. If I were Trump I would totally distance myself from Cruz. Either win on your own or lose. But not smart to align with a guy who just got reprimanded by the Iowa Sec of State over shaming letters and then had to apologize to Ben Carson for dirty tricks. I don’t think any other of the GOP candidates has had any of this kind of antics that I’ve heard of.

“They just need to STOP with the childish bickering.”

Meh, Trump started the war. It can be over if he waves the white flag.

No. It would be the first time I have ever stayed home. Can’t stomach the guy.

Sorry, but no. Cruz supporters did a scorched earth campaign to get him a Iowa win at all costs, and burned too many bridges in the process. From Trump/Carson/Hucakabee supporters on.

“I think people are overplaying Cruz’s reliance on evangelicals.”

Concur. I am Catholic and a stanch Cruz supporter.

I too worry about multiple more grassroots/conservative candidates tearing their viability to pieces, while the GOPe unites behind a single candidate to clean up through the mess.

It seems like we never learn.

quit making the Cabana Boy look like the adult in the room. Because he's NOT.

The Bush family likes to back Cuban-Americans for public office: the Cubans lean Republican and they break the meme "Hispanic <=> Democrat" that the 'Rats have been pushing since Landslide Lint'n blew up the hinges of American immigration policy.

In Houston, the Bush family explicitly, patronizingly, and embarrassingly endorsed for mayor -- twice -- a Cuban-American politico named Orlando Sanchez, who now holds a state office somewhere after twice failing to break the death-grip the 'Rats have on Houston city government.

At the time, I called Sanchez "the Bush family's cabana boy" and similar things, mostly because he was so obviously subservient and a creature of Manor Bush.

Marco Rubio appears to have come up the same way, as a protege of Yeb!

I think I’m going to change my mind on my hopes for a Trump/ Cruz team.

I’m going to lean more towards a Trump/ Rubio team.

I’m sick of Cruz and all his supporters.

He won Iowa but he was predicted to do that. Now it’s time to really show what he has.

No longer a supporter of a Cruz anything ticket.
