I think Rubio is trying to be like Trump with trying to put a label on Trump like Trump did with Cruz (liar) and Jeb (low-energy). Rubio and Cruz are trying to throw things at the wall like spaghetti to see what will stick and in hopes of getting free media attention. Trump can pull it off because it was true, Rubio can’t. I’m not an attorney but I think that Trump could threaten a lawsuit but it wouldn’t stick because there are different rules for defamation and/or libel (sorry, don’t remember) for famous or political people than there are for us peons.

One section was just starting to fill in when they had the camera back about 20 mins ago. Lots of Secret Service guys, I’ll bet they enjoy this duty a lot more than being called dogs and worse by Hillary.
“American Dreamer” usually says the Man is on his way!
I predict Huckabee to follow suit and Carson to endorse when he drops out.â€
I hope you are right.
Trump has stood with Ben thru a lot of thin times. I still remember him standing with Ben Carson when CBS flubbed the intro—no one else did.
I was very disappointed that Santorum jumped onto the Rubio GOPe bandwagon during his first Faux News attempt to anoint Rubio a few weeks ago before South Carolina.
I owe, I owe, it’s off to work I go.... hoping yours come out better than mine. Christie on... gotta go :)
Christie on.
Heeeeer’s Christie!
Chris Christie takes the stage
Christie up!
Rubot...watch out!
Woo hoo!! Christie up!
Here we go family
Showtime!
Christie on.
Hopefully Trump can keep Cruz way below 50 in TX.
On the legal lingo, "defamation" is the general term. Slander is spoken defamation, libel is written defamation. You are right that the legal standard when the target is a public figure is higher than for peons. The publisher has to KNOW (or should have known) the statement was false. For some reason, the court called this 'actual malice," even though no malice is involved, at all!!
Christie opening ...
“Ted Cruz is nervous”
Sounds like a Yuuuuge crowd tonight :)
Praying and trying MY best to make sure that happens!!
Hits Rubio! Crush the Cubans!
Marco Rubio—you’re campaign is almost over, buddy
