A vote for Amnesty Boy is an endorsement of amnesty and a permanent Democrat majority.

I will not endorse national suicide with my vote.
You can if you want.

Translation: I’ll cut all the deals the GOP needs.
Not necessarily what the country needs.

Rubio can and will unite the party. He is the only one that can. I agree with him. Have fun with the flames. Anyone who thinks Cruz can win over independents and other republicans that he needs in the general election to win is smoking something.

Really? You think the Rubio Supreme Court justices would look like Shrillary’s?

How does Justice Barack Obama sound to you? Shrillary has already endorsed this as a “great idea”.

Rubio certainly has his shortcomings as a candidate but to argue you will get the same results from he and HRC is just faulty logic.

Ok...........we are still in the first innings. Why is everyone acting like the election is over.

Cruz got 8 delegates. Trump has 7 delegates and Rubio either has 6 or 7 delegates.........nobody is saying that any of them are going to be President. All three have to convince voters to vote for them. It is a long road to go. The only way the road would have stopped last night is if Trump won......he came in a strong 2nd and the race will go on. Perhaps that is best. I think all this overreaction to 1 state is a bit much.

Why are you acting like Rubio won? He has 6 or 7 delegates. Trump has 7 delegates and Cruz has 8 delegates. This is hardly a done deal. We will see more roller coster events over the next 6 months then you can imagine. The voters will decide who they want to represent the Republicans in the General. The media does not have much to say or convince. They were big time Trump and look what happened. It is all about the voters.

If Rubio gets elected he will give away the country and hand the Democrats a permanent majority, so you children and grandchildren won’t have a country anyway.

You have a good point. My irritation though is the push by the media (and GOPe) to once again pick out candidate — Rubio. And that is happening today with the big push for Rubio on almost all media — including the supposedly conservative Fox News. I think the reaction you are commenting on is a result of that — the same-o same-o activity by the media and GOPe.

It's the media who is saying it, and until NH it will be all Rubio all the time from all news sources. I went to bed thinking Cruz had a narrow victory over Trump, and all I've heard since I got up this morning is Rubio.

Well I certainly share that frustration, but I put it on the voters more then the media. The Voters are the ones in charge of voting for a candidate. I also blame the conservative states who proportion the votes while the blue and purple states are winner take all. Wouldn’t it be great for Cruz to have 44 delegates from last night instead of 8? That is the problem (and you know I am not a Cruz fan but I still believe Cruz should have more then 8 delegates and only ahead by 1 delegate). That is why we end up with a more moderate Republican every time. I think the media is a very small part of it. They are just there to get the blame, but nobody studies the process which is the big time problem.

Rubio says one thing in English to audience; then speaks another opposite thing in Spanish to illegals/Hispanics/Cubans.

Rubio would be an enormous disaster. He has zero positive accomplishments. He was member of the Gang of Eight. He is controlled by GOPe and his donors. His speed talking and slickness should raise red flags.

Rubio smooched the butts of illegal invading unwanted immigrants, and wants to foist them on the rest of us that say ‘no’.

If you are going to vote for the Rube and get amnesty just like Hillary wants it’s game over anyway whether they vote for him or her.

The Rube is the GOPE plan D...
