...he’s proceeding maliciously-— WHen Bush and the GOPe went after Trump, it had no effect because the voters wouldn’t credit anything that came out of GOPe mouths.

Rubio spent a ton trying to convince folks that Cruz wasn’t Cruz-— Rubio lost ground. The same will happen with this effort, except Rick and Huck have no ground to lose.

I can’t wait to watch January unfold. Thinking of Cruz, one has to know that he’s been planning for this moment for years. He ran simulations in his head over and over, “it’s Jan. 1, 2016, primary on Feb 1, 2016, now here’s what I do...”

Can’t imagine that there’s anything he hasn’t considered and prepared for— 31 days, he has them planned for years, including how to deal with sneak attacks from Huck and ethanol.

Be fun to watch.

Pretty much. Rubio is 20 points behind Cruz. Huckabee and Santorum together add up to 3-points. The sum of their poll numbers won't do s**t for Rubio in catching up to Cruz.
