TULSA, Okla. Striking a more populist tone ahead of Super Tuesday, Ted Cruz delivered a revamped stump speech to a raucous Oklahoma rally Sunday.
The campaign, he said, is dedicated to all the working men and women with calluses on your hands.
This election is going to be about three key ideas: Jobs, freedom and security, he said.
He cast his differences on immigration with rival Marco Rubio as a question not only of values but of jobs, arguing the amnesty Rubio supported in the Gang of 8 plan would hurt Americans employment prospects.
As for Trump, he said, you dont get to abuse the immigration laws and pretend to be a champion of working men and women.
The rally at an expo hall on the state fairgrounds drew roughly 1,000 people.
Conservative talker Glenn Beck warmed up the crowd with a swipe at Donald Trump, who earlier Sunday had refused to repudiate an endorsement from David Duke, the longtime Ku Klux Klan leader and Louisiana politician.
Donald Trumps response this morning was Im not going to condemn anyone. I need to do my research I dont know what kind of research you need to do on the Klan. Its like, the Nazis and the Klan pretty easy, Beck said, after criticizing him for a lesser evil, being a builder who puts a lot of gold crap on everything.
Cruz and Rubio both condemned Trump through social media.

Beck probably broke in a few tears
I am actually wearing a dark gray T-shirt right now. Where did this brown stuff come from?
Here is the GOPe plan to rig the primaries.
Still think Cruz will win Texas on Tuesday by 8-10 points. But Trump will clean up otherwise
Cruz: squeek squeek ...insert meme of the day...squeek squeek squeek...
Ah yes, attacking Trump from the left...
Does anyone really believe this drivel?
So you’re happy with Republicans calling other Republicans “Nazis” and “Klansmen?”
I’m not happy with ANY of this GARBAGE and NAME CALLING on either side no matter WHO the candidate !!
But to talk about a opponent burning in Hell and wishing that on them, doesn’t set well with this senior citizen.
Have we gone MAD on FR? Sure seems like it. Throwing MUD, ACTING insane. GOD HELP US. AMERICA is all but down the drain now.
Cruz is a dirty liar. How anyone can vote for this phony is beyond me.
Sniff sniff. Do you smell something?? I do and it smells like desperation. Cruz and Rubio lite suck.
MFO
Must be those pills Marco gave me.
Really stupid move politically. Run as a GOP candidate and sound like every screaming hysteric BLM Leftist. Yeah, that is going to get you votes.
Jeff Sessions endorsed Trump today
bet that hurt huh Ted and Glen?
Yes he did.
32,000 inside another 3,000 outside who couldn't get in.
How many times does Trump have to be asked to repudiate David Duke's endorsement?
Maybe you should direct your anger at Trump instead of the messenger.
Did they have another weird phony swearing in?
