Laura Ingraham: "Tell Me Again How Marco Rubio Is Different From Lindsey Graham On Any Issue?"
RCP ^ | 04/21/2015

Posted on 04/21/2015 7:48:22 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

On Monday's edition of The Laura Ingraham Show, the nationally-syndicated host talked about an e-mail she received from a friend that got her thinking: what's the difference between declared Republican presidential candidate Sen. Marco Rubio and Sen. Lindsey Graham, who is considering a run.

LAURA INGRAHAM: We seem to have a topsy-turvy thing going on in the Republican field, okay? Rubio Is now the darling of the Republican Party. And, look, I’m just going to tell you where I see things. And, I like all these people personally a lot... I like Marco. But, you know, a friend of mine emails me last night at like four in the morning. I don’t know why she was up. She’s emailing me, she said, 'Tell me again how Marco Rubio is different from Lindsey Graham on any issue? How is he different from Lindsey Graham?' And I said, thinking to myself, 'I don’t know.' And then the big chyron “Rubio Leaping Into Third Place in the GOP.”...

He gave this interview to this Jorge Ramos-- why are they all running to Jorge Ramos at Univision? Well, they go there because they think they can make inroads into the Hispanic vote. But, I’m gonna go through this interview that he did with Jorge Ramos and the transcript of it, which caused some controversy over the weekend. Breitbart finally settled the matter. But I’m trying to, I still can’t figure out what his position is on this executive amnesty.

Rubio is the current backup for Jeb in the category: NOT TED CRUZ.

Spot on. Expect that category to eventually settle on a final candidate: whoever wins the Democratic primary. From the establishment's perspective, the 2016 presidential election has only two outcomes: the bad - President Cruz, and the good - failed candidate Ted Cruz.

No conservative votes will go to Cruz, Paul and Walker. Mine will go to Cruz if he is still in good shape when Texas gets to vote. Otherwise Paul (if he is still viable). If Cruz and Paul are out then maybe walker, maybe but he would have to convince me he’d crack down on illegal immigration plus legal immigration of people that have no interest in assimilating. If I can’t vote for any of the above I’ll write in Sarah Palin’s name.

They just re-elected him after his previous betrayals. They had a good conservative alternative in Lee Bright. I think you may be over-estimating SC voters.

Used to like her. She seems like too much of an insider to me.

That’s Dave Brat, my Congressman, who I helped throw Eric Cantor from office, in that picture.
Proof that we have term limits in our hands.
Primary the betraying weasels out.
SC had the chance to replace Grahamnesty with Lee Bright and chose to keep their weasel.
KY had Matt Bevin and chose to keep their weasel, Mitch McConnell.
MS had McDaniel and chose to keep their weasel, Thad Cochran. (with help from the GOPe)

I worry about cross over Rat voters ruining a GOP primary if the Rats wrap theirs up early but C. Edmund Wright had an interesting insight.

C. Edmund Wright to jpsb
Some of the ‘rats might really believe the hype that Cruz is un-electable, and maybe they’ll cross over and vote FOR him.

Now wouldn’t that be delicious irony?

I'm hoping CEW is on to something, lol.

If the RNC gets Jebster nominated as designated loser, I’m writing in Ted Cruz.

The rest of the pack are all in favor of changing the laws to accomodate the fraudulently documented foreigners.
I like what Walker is saying now, but I’m not sure I believe him. I hope I can. He articulated my position almost exactly on Glenn Beck’s radio show:
Illegal aliens must return home and apply like everybody else. Any changes to the laws must benefit America and Americans, not foreigners.

I wish Rush would say this. He still has hope for Rubio. He went off yesterday about how conservatives will find one thing wrong with a candidate and then not support them, til one by one they are eliminated. I believe he was referring to Rubio. Cruz doesn’t have that one thing, and Walker is pretty nearly perfect. How about conservatives focus on those two, and try to narrow it down to one as soon as possible?

Dave Brat defeated Eric Cantor. Laura helped, so did I and thousands of others. We had very active Tea party groups here. We have term limits in our hands if we will use it.

Same with Rubio - I’m sure just about all of us supported him when he ran for Congress. Then when he got in we found out that he cannot be trusted.

Rubio is a cuban con man. He’s DONE nothing conservative. He’s said some pretty words but done nothing good. all he’s done is vote for and craft a country destroying horrible Amnesty bill that backstabs Americans

“So you’re saying that conservatives in SC are so shallow that they’ll vote for a proven liberal over a conservative, just because the liberal rodent is “from there”?”

57% of them stood with him in the 2014 primary. Enough said.

Scott Walker was awesome on Glen Beck.
Scott Walker is the ONLY politician who has said he will reduce legal immigration and illegal immigration. All others want an increase in HIB worker immigrant visas

Good for Laura!

All you need to know about Rubio is David Brooks’s fulsome praise for him in today’s NYTimes.
