But Cruz is going to get demolished as the contest moves up north and onto the coasts. He’s a non-factor in the big metropolitan states, New York, California, Illinois, Pennsylvania, New Jersey. What’s the point of rallying around a dead man walking?
Lil’ Marco’s winning strategery was 3-2-1. He is now at 3-3-3-4-splat. He isn’t even following his own playbook.
Those NRO covers made me LOL.
Are they real or did someone photoshop them.
They have all the naive marketing punch of a 1950s toilet tissue advertisement and deliciously ironic.
“A major problem w/Rubio leaving the race prior to the FL primary is that he already has a large number of early voting ballots that have been cast”
Early voting is a major problem.
National Review needs a new name and masthead. I modestly (always!) suggest, Schlonging Times/ The Journal of Getting Schlonged in American Politics
“Maybe National Review can put Cruz on the cover, pretending that they support him, when in fact they support Democrats?”
NR has been 100% taken over by the PUKEneocons.
I am convinced it was Cruz.
Cruz remained ‘above the fray’ and they seemed quite chummy when they got on stage - Cruz knew what was coming Donald’s way.
Add to that - it is not smart for a freshman Senator to crack wise in reference to Depends and someone Donald Trump’s age. I can tell you with absolute authority that this is exactly why he imploded in Florida.
Others might not vote for him because he is Hispanic or Catholic or Cuban in particular.
There are lots of good reasons, and even more bad ones, not too vote for Rubio.
Rubio was doomed since the GOPe came out strong for him after Jeb’s demise. That firmly entrenched him as “establishment”...something that conservative voters are tired of.
I can mostly speak for one, but it will take real issues. No, I'm not talking who was just hired to help with finances.
Then he should go all in and endorse Trump, who has a far more likely shot at winning the Presidency than Cruz.
Establishment endorsing establishment is going to kill Cruz.
I think Cruz is scrambling right now and he is forgetting his message.
I think you mean the GOPukes.
If Rubio can't carry his own state in the primary would he really help in the general election?
Mostly the same....
McCain
Flake
Graham
Ryan
McConnell
They are PUKEneos of the highest grade : )
Cruz/Rubio is a non-starter. As is any combination of Trump/Cruz.
If Rubio and Kasich exit immediately, I can see a viable Cruz/Kasich coalition. Since this won’t happen it’s Trump’s nomination to lose. And as Rush said, only Trump can stop Trump.
Looks to me like a lot of the “safe pick” voters want blood this time around.
Trump has it locked up. NR is delusional.
“National LOOSER Magazine” the GOP Establishment’s rag.
GOPe supports Jeb!, Trump goes up.
GOPe supports Rubio, Trump goes up.
so yeah, come on GOPe, support Cruz now. Trump needs another boost.
