Are we destined for a “Rubio versus Cruz” primary?

They are doing so because their momentum is based more on name identification and not on records or ground games.

Carson has more of a ground game than the author might imagine. He has some seriously commited people putting in the time heer in Georgia, that's for sure.

[Dr. Sivana]

And if it DID come down to Cruz vs. Rubio, the Drive-By media would STILL call the Republican Party anti-Latino.

[ilgipper]

If Rubio hadn’t gone all in on immigration, I’d be game. Instead, he comes off as more of a contrived, over-scripted Washington stooge now. I have seldom been more impressed with a candidate than Rubio 2010. I have seldom been more letdown than his crappy sales job on a Schumer bill to sell out America.

LOL. The guy leading all the polls by a lot is just going to disappear?

[BigEdLB]

It is Erickson, after all...

[kabar]

Meanwhile, I continue to think Trump will find an excuse to quit the race sometime this winter unless he’s implausibly bounced out to such a huge lead in the polls that he looks to be a walkover winner in Iowa and/or New Hampshire.

Wishful thinking.

It was not The Donald that dropped out of the Presidential race, so why is he already being dismissed and marginalized in the inner circles?

Still the Big Dawg, and he clearly is NOT on the porch.

“They are doing so because their momentum is based more on name identification and not on records or ground games.”

He has no clue. I have seen Trump on TV for years. I am not supporting him because I have seen him on TV for years, but for what he campaigns on. I have seen Jeb! on TV for years. I have seen Rubio on TV for years. That is why I don’t support them; I know what they stand for: amnesty, for one.

Nope. Destiny has it at Trump. Next question.

Don't be so closed minded.

Trump may fade or he may not.

The Cruz scenario would be a good one.

[txhurl]

Hold on there, hoss. May be some scandals Rubio may have to spend big bucks burying now or ride out later. Just rumors, to be sure, but something to keep in the back of your mind.

Trump ain’t gonna fade...

Trump’s numbers are too high for him to be fading.

Right now he is the one aligned most closely with Republican VOTERS on immigration and Iran.

[flaglady47]

Erick Erickson is persona non grata to me.

[nhwingut]

AllahPundit has been writing/hoping this forever. Same narrative, with some different words and scenarios.

Is Ted Cruz the new frontrunner for the nomination?

[Lurkinanloomin]

I’d never vote for Rubberio, he’s shown he’s way too flexible with his Gang activities.

I’m still planning on voting for Cruz in March.

If Trump is the only way to beat The Cheap Labor Express, that’s the way I’ll go.

[Captain Peter Blood]

Not to worry, Trump is working behind the scenes drying up everyone’s funding.

>> “Trump ain’t gonna fade.” <<

Trump is out of ammunition.

He has shot his wad, and has only the clown show left to fill the time.

OK so understanding that the writer is also part of the establishment or at best a - wanna-be, if Rubio is getting Walker/Bush money people (then that tells me Walker was establishment-life and Rubio is Bush Jr.)

Cruz does have the money to stay in for the long haul but I'm much less sure Trump will fade and Carson has much more than "name recognition," he has credibility, something that Rubio has NOT!
