Hurt: Establishment GOP Looking for ‘Third-Tier’ Person Against Trump and Cruz
Brietbart Television ^ | December 29, 2015 | Charles Hurt , Drudge Report editor, Breitbart News contributor, and Washington Times columnist

Drudge Report editor, Breitbart News contributor, and Washington Times columnist Charles Hurt said establishment Republicans are "looking for a third-tier person" to challenge Donald Trump and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) on the Tuesday edition of the Fox News Channel's "Special Report."

Hurt said, "Sure, endorsements are important, but I don't know that getting member of Congress to endorse your campaign at this point does much good, and I agree with what Charles is saying, this idea that they're going to attack Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) for missing votes, in a body that they're all ridiculing is sort of insane, and especially because one of the big hits against him among real strong conservatives is the votes that he has taken with regards to immigration.....

For the last several elections the GOPe has ridden herd over the opinions of actual voters.

This time they will lose.

None too soon. America is giving away everything we had accumulated.

In just one generation.

I believe Rubio’s GOPe-friendly voting record will hurt him more than his not voting.

He’s a rubber stamp for the establishment.

Looking ahead if Trump does win, it is going to be a very interesting 4 years with him battling the establishment dominated Congress. I hope he tares them a new one every night on TV when they balk at his agenda.

I hope he wins. But I think if all the dems hate him for stopping Hillary, and the GOPe hates him for ruining the game.
They will look for a lame excuse to impeach him. The world could get very bumpy and weird.

The giveaway is occurring so quickly because the extremists are patient. Two generations after they successfully took over the education system, they have corrupted the parents who now willingly assist in the corruption of their own children. These last two generations have been indoctrinated in socialist theory and have been whipped to hate success.

Stop looking like a broken record. I have posted BigEd’s state by state breakdown half a dozen times to answer your illogical question. Cruz is ahead only in ONE STATE..IOWA!

Keep in mind, Santorum & Huckabee both won Iowa. And both are more likable than Cruz.

Neither one had the millions in campaign funds, the volunteers and infrastructure & organization that Cruz has. Likeability is way overrated. Was LBJ likeable? Woodrow Wilson? Andrew Jackson? Bush 41?

Says you, but I doubt you’ve met all three, so this is merely your opinion.
