If he wants to back Cruz, I could care less. Hey, he may see it that way.

Talking up Rubio in any way shape or form, is just plain puddin-headed.

I’ve given up on Rush. He is a 100% certified RINO now. He knows damn well Rubio had a melt-down and Christie could have looked at him and said “how’s your family Marco” and Rubio would have still repeated the talking points. He looked scared to death, and was muttering his memorized talking points. He probably thought he was still at home memorizing them. Rush denying what his own eyes showed him is pathetic. He needs to retire and quit embarrassing himself.

We all agree that Marco is right about this — but FOUR times in the same debate, virtually word for word.

Marc Thiessen is an Establishment guy, but he’s a former speechwriter. He made a good point. He said, “Good speechwriters come up with half a dozen ways to say the same thing.” (At least then it doesn’t sound the same.) Also, you can find ways to drop it in innocuously, so it doesn’t stand out quite so much.

Now, I do think this is being overemphasized, but it’s not an entirely illegitimate concern. It’s certainly more important than boots.

I agree with Rush as I have for years. Go Rubio, tell it like it is. Over and Over again. It is the message.

Rush has got his head so far up his ass on this, I wonder if this will mark the end of his career in radio. He’s bound to retire sometime and it’s one thing to have a few libs upset at him, but another when he alienates a good fraction of his listenership.

Rabble rousing for Rubio, the Amnesty candidate.

I have always promoted the ideas I believe, and I have always championed people who publicly articulate them. Even if they might have a credibility problem here or there.

Sorry Rush.

Rubio's lying about amnesty is not simply "a credibility problem here or there."

We have a Republican Party that has not engaged in one day's worth of this kind of push-back over the course of seven years.

And yet it's the same Republican Party that Rush has supported over the years when push comes to shove.

The point is not whether Rubio was right, of course he is.

He's also right about the need to secure the borders. The problem is does he mean it.

I don't think so.

Hahahah the lengths to which some folks are willing to go to try to salvage Rubio being absolutely owned by Christie in the debate is beyond comical.

He's not accidentally making mistakes. He's not rooted in incompetence and incapability. Barack Obama is doing exactly what he planned on doing, and he's doing it well. He's done it. I think Obama and Michelle probably pinch themselves at night unbelieving how easy it has been. I think they sit there and, when they're honest with themselves, they can't believe how little opposition there has really been to it.

I doubt it. First of all, if Obama really did want to make major changes in the country, he probably feels frustrated at not being able to do so, rather than satisfied at how much he was able to do and how easy it was. His to do list had to have been longer than his list of what he did.

Second, the argument about experience involves experience mellowing politicians, making them less strident and unyielding, and more willing to compromise and try different means to achieve their ends. So if Obama is somebody trying to impose his will in all things on the country, that may have something to do with his general callowness and lack of experience.

He’s been leading an Obama styled amnesty and though the other stuff is true, he himself should not become President.

Rush, you are just giving us doublespeak. Rubio is worthless and is not worth listening to anything he says.

Even if Rubio is right - technically he is that Obama is purposefully destroying America - he is discredited because of his support for amnesty. The same amnesty that Obama supports.

So anything he says has no credibility. I used to listen to Rush on my lunch hour, no more. I read the blogs on my phone.

Rubio Said What Needs to Be Said -- and Repeated -- About Obama's Intentions

You betcha. The Obama/Jarrett administration is a disaster for America.

The bottom line for Rush is the concept that Obama is intentionally damaging the USA. Rubio is the one candidate that came out and said exactly that (however unartfully), so Rush obviously would want to defend Rubio. Rubio’s probably the only guy that actually read Alinsky. Obviously Chris Christie, the Blubbering Boy on the Beach, never did.

I may have to or decide to lengthen my Rush hiatus.

Something happened here with Rush & Rubio. It’s not to my liking.
