Ted won't.
Bull crap!!!
Ain't gonna work.
The media is creaming over Rubio.
Rubio is not my first choice, but if the ballot is;
Clinton vs Rubio, I pull the Rubio lever.
if it is Clinton vs Bush, I wash the truck.
I don't "settle" anymore. Romney was the last time.
You want my vote, GOP; you earn my vote.
Otherwise--Sayonara.
But under no circumstances will I ever vote for another Bush, ever.
Somehow the Democrats manage to get perfect ideologues for their candidates and never have to settle.
[Why Marco Rubio Is Probably the GOP’s Best Hope]
TED CRUZ is DEFINITELY the GOP’s Best Hope and
the MOST QUALIFIED TO BE POTUS

Pretty impressive...
• Solicitor General of Texas from 2003 - May 2008, Cruz was the first Hispanic Solicitor General in Texas, the youngest Solicitor General in the entire country, not to mention the longest tenure in Texas history.
• Partner at the law firm Morgan, Lewis & Bockius, where he led the firm’s U.S. Supreme Court and national appellate litigation practice.
• Cruz has authored 80+ SCOTUS briefs and presented 40+ oral arguments before The Court
• Cruz served as a law clerk to Chief Justice William Rehnquist. Cruz was the first Hispanic ever to clerk for a Chief Justice of the United States
• Described as a ‘superb’ constitutional lawyer, the man’s considerable skills and laser-like focus were on display for all when he took oily reptile Eric Holder by the neck and made him
answer the damn question.
• In the landmark case of District of Columbia v. Heller, Cruz assembled a coalition of 31 states in defense of the principle that the 2nd Amendment guarantees an individual right to keep and bear arms.
• Cruz presented oral argument for the amici states in the companion case to Heller before the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.
• In addition to his victory in Heller, Cruz has successfully defended the Ten Commandments monument on the Texas State Capitol grounds, the recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance in public schools and the majority of the 2003 Texas redistricting plan. Cruz also successfully defended, in Medellin v. Texas, the State of Texas against an attempt by the International Court of Justice to re-open the criminal convictions of 51 murderers on death row throughout the United States.
• Director of the Office of Policy Planning at the Federal Trade Commission
• Domestic Policy Advisor to U.S. President George W. Bush on the 2000 Bush-Cheney campaign.
• Adjunct Professor of Law at the University of Texas School of Law in Austin, where he taught U.S. Supreme Court litigation
• Ted Cruz is currently junior US Senator from Texas. In order to win the 2012 Republican nomination for the Senate seat vacated by Kay Bailey Hutchison, Cruz had to defeat Texas Lieutenant Governor David Dewhurst -heavily favored/backed by the DC old-guard GOP- in the Republican primary runoff. In the event, TEA Party favorite Cruz crushed Dewhurst, 57-43%...
he then beat Democrat Paul Sadler in the general election by a similar margin, 56-41. Cruz is also endorsed by the Tea Party Movement and the Republican Liberty Caucus.

Godspeed, Senator Cruz- I’m all in.
If he is then God help us all.
Sen. Mike Lee says Rubio “can bring grown men to tears with emotion.” This is something voters value.
Emotionalism. Sounds more like what Dim voters value.
The election is eighteen months away.
It’s far, FAR too soon to be making predictions.
Or at least a Constitutional Amendment to reinstate peerage after 229 years, so we don't beat around the bush and pretend we're a democracy any more.
If it's Baron Bush versus Baroness Clinton, I think I'll leave the country.
NOT a “compelling speaker.”
When Rubio debates Jeb, what is he going to say to distinguish himself? He has used his time in Washington to become a Jeb Jr. I think Marco is getting into this to have a better chance of being Jeb’s VP choice, but he will have to compete with Hillary for that position.
Rubio has never, ever begun to move me as a speaker.
His style to me is like Mister Rogers’—not a good look for a pol.
And the saccharine immigrant-roots story is the most transparent of political ploys. But it’s particularly obnoxious coming from a pro-amnesty agitator.
Cruz can keep him on the short list of VP candidates.

[Let’s face it, even if Rubio is overrated, he’s probably the kind of consensus candidate GOP primary voters are going to have to settle on, anyway.]
No use to settling for second best when we have TED CRUZ the best!
TED CRUZ - Best of the best - 2016
