Rubio is not a failure if his function is to piss off Trump enough to get him into a carnival sideshow at the debates and move votes to other candidates for future nefarious purposes.

Trump better be preparing with some very good advisers for Thursday night's debate. The last debate DID hurt him.

The downfall of Rubio is definitely not something I’ll ever complain about!

I don’t know if Rubio is trying to win or just in there to keep splitting the delegates. He keeps picking up a couple here and a couple there. Is it his job to insure a brokered convention and the Romney nomination.

Hey, nobody wants to elect a 10 incher.

Let’s help him move on to his future career as porn star.

Rubio is a loser.

What a monumental shame it is that Trump and Cruz are not a team :-(

We knew that about Bubbles from the time he stabbed his supporters in the back before the ink was dry on his certificate of election to the Senate.

Yep Rubio is going to try to do to Trump what Criste did to Rubio in NH. Dirty Trumps brand enough, with the willing help of the gutter slime behavior of the “conseravtive” Media outlets.

NR, TownHall Red State etc better wake up to the fact campaigns come and go, a reputation for reckless hysterics and out right lying is not going to be forgotten once the campaign ends.

There are supposeld “Conservative” writers and magainse/blog sites making career ending choices these days.

The Leftist media we expect to use these sort of dirt bag tactics, when our OWN start using them customers are left wondering if the dirt bags were ever really on our side at all?

Maybe they are. This could all be Kabuki theater.

You are a smart guy 2DV, I’d love for it to be true about Kabuki..

I’m no intellectual midget but I’m so worried about the general election I can barely think properly these days.

I’d sleep much better if I found out that Trump and Cruz buried the hatchet.

I have been making the case that Cruz should align with Trump. The reason is not to save Trump, but to save himself from the GOPe, who are only using him temporarily to help fight Trump. If and when Trump is out of the way, they will go after Cruz harder than they did Trump, possibly as a government-shutter-downer...the worst thing you can be these days.

No way the GOPe is going to support Ted Cruz, at least not without a establishment operative as VP, ala Reagan-Bush, which will put us all back in the same boat when have been for a long time. If he aligns with Trump, they can take over the party and it is game over for the GOPe.

Remember that they met at Trump’s office. What was that about?

BEST Primary ever. We all have our personal choices but let face it. What choices they ARE!

All the GOPE money candidate out or capsized and sinking. No matter what happens from here, they lose, we win.

That picture from that meeting, the one where Cruz has the ill-fitting suit, gave me a lot of hope for a team up.

Been a long while since I posted this...
