From his good friend Jeb to his new friend Boobio.

Have you heard of President Bob Dole? I remember voting for the loser.

Clinton whupped his ass. His campaign was as exciting as watching paint dry.

When you endorse a complete loser, you have no credibility when you endorse another candidate after the first loser drops out.

“I’d be happy to be his adviser,” Dole added.

I liked his advice to Trump on toning things down and acting ‘presidential’. A losing candidate, giving advice to the freight train. I should be amazed, but I’m not.

Oh boy! The old cadaver is endorsing Rubio; talk about grasping at straws. Who gives a rat;s rear end what Dole says?

I’m sorry to say I voted for him for President and for Senator. He is part of team-vindictive out to punish the Senate whistle-blower. Rubio plays the game of lying to voters and bowing to the establishment.

Another reason not to vote for him.

The phrase I recall that defined Dole best and has staying power even today was "Dole has all the charisma of a mashed potato sandwich".

And Rubio says he isn’t “establishment”?

Bob Dole is a true hero, unlike another Senator that Vietnam Vets in the know refer to as ‘Songbird’.

Thank you Mr. Dole and I’m sure a President Trump will welcome your input.

seems Romney did this the other day, and RUBIO put out PR that Romney will NOT be endorsing him....betcha we soon see the same for Dole.

I will not slander this great American veteran. Even though I might have not agreed with his politics.

Unlike another veteran that has purposely undermined the USA through his policies.

Sort of like the old saying "about as useful as teats on a boar." Hog breeders know, however, that boars with lots of nipples tend to produce piglets who grow up to be sows with lots of nipples.

So it is actually quite useful. Dole is announcing the back-up choice of the GOPe who wants to be the designated loser to Hillary.
