Rick Santorum endorsed Marco Rubio for president on Wednesday evening, just hours after announcing he’d drop out of the race himself.

Rubio wrote a check.
Exactly. They really are legion, the enemy. We’re in the fight of our lives...and for them.
Didn't happen....
Polls aren't reliable...and the MSM and many FReeper's post them as news. They aren't.
Period.
Comment of the Day™
I dunno. Bush, Kasich and Christy voters would naturally go to Rubio. The longer they remain the the race, it will be at the expense of Rubio. Trump, Cruz and Rubio appear to be the most viable at the moment.
Rand Paul is out, which overall will be a boost for Cruz, and maybe to a lesser extent Rubio and of little help Trump.
The longer that the GOPe candidates remain in the running, I think that it will hurt Rubio the most. I would hope that Bush and Christy will get a boost through this.
The game is not over.
As far as Hillary is concerned, polling indicates she would be beaten by Rubio, Cruz and Trump in that order.
WOW, I didn’t see THAT coming. (sarc)
Santorum has demonstrated why he [sic] just another political hack with a huge ego. Trump has made them all drop their veils and expose who they really are."
Oh hell I just spoke too soon. Comment of the Day™ goes to you, rube: "Trump is responsible for Santorum endorsing Rubio".
That is just the best Tuesday is ever going to get...let me send you another 6-pack...
I do not think that Cruz can beat the liberal media. When he is confronted by criticism he looks like he is on the verge of tears. The liberal media will destroy him. Donald will take no crap from any of them nor the Democrats.
I can’t see anything else happening, but the Cruz-Trump forces self-destructing and Rubio marching to victory. Trump though may implode in NH, and it will Cruz-Rubio thereafter, with Rubio winning nearly every faceoff.
I dont know the guy but all I’ve heard was he’s ultra conservative and NO RINO views at all etc.
hmm.
Of course he did.
The Establishment must feel emboldened — ya’ know with the Trump and Cruz supporters at each others’ necks.

That’s likely how it will unfold. Not enough room for two anti-establishment candidates. Look like they will destroy each other and what ever is left their supporters will finish off.
I had two Trump supporters tell me just today that after all that has been done they would NEVER vote for Ted Cruz if he won the nomination.
Guess we’ll see another RINO
Yeah, I think Trump is well past the “any publicity is good publicity” stage. But does he realize it?
Trump did seem more toned down in his last 2 appearances, esp. the press conference B4 his rally with Scott Brown. But he should lay off the Tweets, or at least use them to ask questions of Rubio and Cruz such as “what is your executive experience?” or “what is your financial experience?” Then again, maybe he should save that for the debates. He could ridicule Cruz for sending out fake voting data on peoples’ neighbors, for example. (Maybe Trump already has.) I like Cruz, but I have a serious problem with that.
Yes, I think if Trump has a track record on anything he has a record of landing punches. Cruz is much more cerebral and will try to let people like Hillary hang themselves. The problem is she just doubles down on her lies, the media covers for her and the LIVs lap it up.
He never was anything but an establishment stalking horse to knock out real conservatives.
An unfortunate possibility.
Being that I support both Trump and Cruz, the battle for the #1 spot is somewhat entertaining. But should the struggle benefit the Establishment, we won’t find ourselves escaping the tyranny we’re attempting to defeat.
..Huck will eventually do the same thing I’m guessing— Plan B is moving forward for the GOPe...
I would have been upset if he had!
