Breitbart ^ | 5 Feb 2016 | Michelle Moons

Posted on 02/05/2016 6:14:26 AM PST by detective

At a Thursday event in Weare, New Hampshire, presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) labeled opposing candidate Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) as the media-anointed "chosen one" for the GOP establishment but ultimately unelectable like prior failed nominees.

Thus Rubio. And, btw, THUS TRUMP. Cruz is an insider, too, and will never make it to the OO.

You have no preferred candidate as yet?

Good catch Travis.

Not sure how you manage to unearth this stuff, but the Dems will surely use this against him.

I was going to say that Rubio's only accomplishment was beating Charlie Crist for the Senate.

But Crist beat himself when he hugged Obama.

First they will ignore it, and promote him through the nomination.

Then, they will drop the hammer, knowing that it will torpedo him with Christian conservatives.

I agree. Rubio is being promoted as the designated loser. The media and establishment want the Democrats to win.

Thanks for the info.

The Dems and media won’t go nuclear with this stuff whether true or not until about two weeks out from the election to plant the Rubio is unfit seed among all the human turnips out there. Plus Hillary will pull out her FBI files that she is known to keep on everyone to get herself anointed with any extra tidbits she has collected on Rubio. Remember it is the seriousness of the charge not whether it is true or not. Just like when they waited until a few weeks before George W. Bush election when they released his old DUI record. D.C. is nothing more than a swamp full of damn snakes.

I mean really does anyone think the Washington players don’t all have secrets to be blackmailed with? HELL THAT IS WHY THEY ARE PICKED, GROOMED AND PLACED IN OFFICE. Think about it. People from sheer obscurity like the dumbass peanut farmer Jimmah Carter from Georgia, goober molestor Bubba Clinton from Arkansas and we can’t forget the hood from Chicago Bam Bam. These people couldn’t get and keep REAL jobs yet they rise from their obscurity to the highest office in the land. IT IS THE PLAN.

I will say that if Ted Cruz and Donald Trump are snakes, they are our snakes like it or not and if we are going to keep the Democrat snake out of the White House this time, maybe the cure is to send in our best, meanest snake and hope he is snake enough to displace their snake. Rubio in my opinion is a democrat snake planted in our nest to foil our best snake once again.

SNAAAAAAKES I HATE EM.

I think Chris Christie is trying to give everyone one and a half hints about Rubio’s pecadilloes when he calls him “Bubble Boy.” I mean why call someone bubble boy. It is so random that it could not possibly be random. Christie also keeps saying things like he won’t look me in the eyes and see if Rubio will gaggle with you. Those things Christie is saying could be construed as the “Bubble Boy” is a poofter. Look up gaggle in the Urban Dictionary.

Well, he does swing in all directions. He also went from Catholic to Mormon to Southern Baptist and back to Catholic. "Whatever it takes, baby!"

It looks to me that the boys are playing Marco Polo in the “Foam Party”..
However, in this case..

“Marco”....”Rubio”...”Marco”....”Rubio”.....”Marco”....

Hey, Rubio was part of the ‘Gang of Eight’ - he and his mother wanted to flood the country with illegals...

Me? I would vote for Sanders before I’d vote for Rubio...

Yes, I did read it. You said that there are women who find Schubio attractive, and I was just saying that I am not such a woman. Sorry if I was unclear.

I am a ticked off American, but especially ticked at the GOP, the only party for which I have ever voted!!! WHAT THE HECK? We have nobody!! Against Hillary, a person for whom I risked by law career to fight against. I feel betrayed and yes UPSET!!!! Stupid party animals are backing Rubio and Jeb; Cruz belongs nowhere near the Oval Office, why don’t we have a female candidate who can put Hillary in her place??? Which is prison, by the way, and I say that going a long way back in her career. So yes, am ticked. And really, Trump???? But there is no one, and who should be blamed? Romney? Rein? I want names, because I am ticked. You should see my email box, full of pleas from the NRSC, where am I, where is my money? REALLY, NRSC?? WHERE ARE YOU?? YOU HAVE No ONE and America is in trouble!!!!!
