Ted Cruz is hoping Rush Limbaugh can push him over the top in next Tuesday's New Hampshire Republican primary. Here's a spot that the senator from Texas is running on a Boston sports radio station, using the conservative yakker's words to brand Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, who holds a slight edge in the race for second place, as a pro-amnesty hypocrite:
Rush Limbaugh: "If you're looking for the Republican candidate who is the most steadfastly opposed to liberalism, whose agenda is oriented toward stopping it and thwarting it and defeating it, it's Ted Cruz."
Narrator: "Rush is right. It's Ted Cruz who's led our fights in Washington. To secure our border. To stop taxpayer-funded benefits for illegal immigrants. And it was Cruz who stood up for us against the Washington establishment. When the Gang of Eight proposed amnesty for 11 million illegal immigrants, it was wrong. Ted Cruz fought them. But what about Marco Rubio? When Rubio ran for Senate, he made this pledge:
Marco Rubio: "I will never support it, never have and never will support any effort to grant blanket legalization amnesty."
Rush Limbaugh: "That's what he said. It's not what he did. It was Marco Rubio that was a member of the Gang of Eight, and Ted Cruz that wasn't."
Narrator: Ted Cruz, the only one we can trust."

Hesssssssssssssssssssssssss baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!
Smart.
Go Cruz!
Go Cruz!

Back from the dead I see.
:)
Ted Cruz, the only one we can trust....period.
Rush Limbaugh:
“If you’re looking for the Republican candidate who is the most steadfastly opposed to liberalism, whose agenda is oriented toward stopping it and thwarting it and defeating it, it’s Ted Cruz.”
Narrator:
“Rush is right.”
Hasn’t Rush came out stating that Rubio is a Conservative or ‘full-throated conservative’ and that he always liked the guy? It could be a Rubio counter ad to Cruz.
LOL.... you read my mind.
Very smart.
Many people were expecting Ted to be Mr. Milktoast. The nice guy who played by the rules and was only a “yes man” to Trump.
Heh, heh, heh.
Well, guess again folks.
I don’t need Rush to think for me.
~~Go Trump Go~~~~Go Trump Go~~~~Go Trump Go~~
Oh goody. TBBT is back from his enforced hiatus over at consistent crybabies. Should liven things up here a bit.
Wonder hoe Rush is going to like Teddy Boy twisting his words. Oh well, Ted Cruz, any thing to win.
A lot of the radio guys insisted Paul Ryan was a consistent conservative too and look how that turned out. Rubio is clearly in the Paul Ryan wing of the party. Anyone with a sense of this stuff can just sniff that out. Cruz is obviously a rock-ribbed, rock-solid conservative while Rubio is a limp-wristed, weak-kneed establishment waterboy.
I don’t believe Cruz can use Rush’s words in an ad, bad judgement, misleading, phony, deceitful, oh, I guess this is SOP for Cruz.
I apologize to Rush, I meant how woul Rush like Cruz twisting his words, not hoe. Very sorry about that.
Not really, he Kind of gave Rubio faint praise and then supported Cruz.
Well then, you better find someone, you seem to be in a trance.
