RedState's Leon Wolf : My Endorsement for President (Marco Rubio)

This is one of the most difficult posts I have ever had to write. I had naively hoped that this election cycle, I would be treated to a substantive contest between a spate of highly accomplished two-term conservative governors, and Senators of great rhetorical skill acting as the ideological conscience of the bunch.

As the primary wore on through the summer of 2015, it became clear that the GOP electorate was not interested in governors of accomplishment, but I still had hope for a final contest between two of my favorite Senators: Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio. I hoped to hear a rousing and fair debate between the two leading into Super Tuesday, where I would be able to make a decision based on who would be the better President, and who would make the better general election opponent against Hillary Clinton.

"I think the Tom Tancredo days within the party are over," says conservative radio host Erick Erickson, who also runs the blog RedState, "if only because of the shell-shock results of 2012 that the base has had to suffer through."

". A poor example of that would be this piece by my colleague Daniel Horowitz which addresses at least arguably a real issue, but cloaked in so much rhetoric that rises immediately to the level of 11 that it gives the very clear impression that Central American kids who cross the border without their parents should be left to starve. Calling supporters of immigration reform by Spanish names as an insult as some did a la “Jorge Arbusto” or “Juan McCain” is – let’s say less than helpful insensitivity at best and a “tell” of pretty strong racial biases at worst.

Somebody needs to do a “Hitler Finds Out...” For Leon when Trump wins the nomination.

Although when “Leon Finds Out...” I suspect it will be with his little dog Eva and involve a bunker somewhere under RedState.

The sanctimony... the self-congratulatory humblebragging... the virtue-signalling... someone get me an insulin pump!

But now we see that Rubio was never supposed to be the nominee, just a tool to facilitate Jeb! by bringing Florida's EVs. And even worse for the GOPe, Christie has not only defected, but may have been a mole inside the Trump camp all along!

It started when he triggered the Robut melt-down and with Jeb!s departure and Trump's rise, Rubio would be irrelevant if he wasn't all the RNC has!

Leon Wolf has endorsed Cabana Boy.

He can’t win. But that’s OK.... anything to avoid having to deal with reaity.

Wow, he threw Cruz under the bus?

[kingu]

I am absolutely shocked. Shocked, I tell you. Shocked and amazed by this shocking turn of events. Who would have figured the head of RedState would endorsed Rubio.

You know, the most amazing thing about this primary is just how many outlets are burning every bridge possible as fast as possible. The new media is just as apt as the dinosaur media to act in utter contempt of their audience.

The Cuban takeover planned and trying to be executed. The Constitution must be obeyed this time around. Both are NOT eligible.
