Finally caught-up with watching this.
I don’t trust Rubio. There’s something snively/sneaky about him, to where I could see him cutting really nasty deals with Democrats if they regain the Senate and/or House. I’ve trusted smooth, fast-talkers like him before, but I’m tired of being burned for the umpteenth time. No leap of faith this time.
Cruz I deeply admire, even though his campaign has made some missteps along the way. He came across as authentic, even funny at moments. I sense that, when in the clutch on tough decisions, he’ll hew to the constitutional philosophy; I don’t doubt his adherence to conservatism like I do with Rubio, who seems like a scam artist.
And the odious Nikki Haley endorsed him. She has shown her true colors.
Little-noticed in one of the past two debates was Rubio saying he was against exceptions for abortion, but he would sign a bill that had them if it came to his desk.
We already saw he did that on amnesty too.
Rubio is in the classic Paul Ryan mold. We’ll preach conservatism but when it comes down to it, we’ll sign whatever bill we can get done easily and then claim it’s the best we could do.
