Spot on, Vin. The splitter strategy is real, but quite clandestine in effecting the unspoken rules of the road.
If you can win yourself, that’s fine. If you can’t, you are held in high favor if you hang around and clear the brush for the other establishment mule who is trailing along on the road, near by.
Obviously, Huckabee has run out of gas, with just enough money left to bang around on someone deemed to be in the wrong lane from the establishment lane. Apparently, Cruz is the mark.
The only thing is Huck seems to actually like TRUMP, or pretends to, in order to keep favor with his conservative pals while he clears it for Rubio, etc..............
Hey Rita,
Nice to hear from you. I do hope you and your family spent a wonderful Christmas.
you’re right— they do what they’re trained to do. But St.Rick and Rev. Huck parade themselves as the Christian altar boys— the hypocrisy is particularly offensive. Huck may be for Trump,(though I’m certain trump isn’t involved in this charade), but in the end- Huck is for Huck.
Rubio is their only hope- but he’s fatally flawed. They can flim-flam all they want, but they can’t undo his betrayal on amnesty. Paul took the soul out of his campaign when he endorsed McConnell- Rubio did not same when he teamed up with Schumer-— they can’t recover. Not in this climate.
IMO, that’s why Rubio is listless- he feels the anchor around is neck.
It’s Trump or Cruz— As long as they do nothing to estrange the other camp’s supporters, the survivor will defeat the remaining Gop-e.
January should be a ton of fun.
