Former Koch Dark Money Group Targets Ted Cruz In Iowa

HuffPost ^ | 10/24/15 | Paul Blumenthal

Threshold disqualifiers that can't be ameliorated, and destroy candidacies:

1. Bush is a Bush;

2. Rand Paul endorsing McConnell;

3. Marco sellout Rubio embracing Schumer (kinda like my main man Newt and Pelosi on the couch)

Spend all the Rino money you want Marco-- you're saddled with your running mate, Chuckie.

to an attack on Cruz for supporting the USA Freedom Act

LOL yeah, good luck with that.

I'll take freedom over security than you.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

Cruz is infinitely better than Rubio. No amount of money and advertising will change that. I personally find cute little Rubio a scary choice in the area of foreign affairs. He would be a disaster. I will not vote for that no matter what.

Floridian Rubio going after Texan Curz in Iowa...

Rubio is undoubtedly upset Curz is beating him in Florida.

That Iowa investment is really going to fix that. LOL

Theater of the absurd...

[DoughtyOne]

I’ve gotta tell ya, that chart floating around on the forum stating that Rubio is better than Trump is a hoot too.

Open borders bring in the terrorists from Syria Rubio is more solid than Trump?

LOL

Trump or Curz supporter, that’s still a hoot.

[VinL]

Ditto.

[conservativejoy]

The open borders crowd pouring money into their open borders candidate. Just what we need, another big-eared wienie in the White House.

[G Larry]

This CAN’T BE TRUE!

Harry Reid told us the Koch Brothers SUPPORTED Ted Cruz!

[libbylu]

Just heard Jonah Goldberg on FNC re Trump attacks on Mr. Cruz: Cruz is the guy who swims across the mote with a knife in his teeth and he knows how to fight.
Lolol.

[Calpublican]

Rubio = Romney 2016

[Vigilanteman]

I can see supporters of Trump, Cruz or Carson getting off their @$$es during a cold Tuesday in an Iowa January to attend caucuses. Rubio supporters, not so much.

I suppose he could pay them to turn out, but I think that is illegal in Iowa. Maybe a hot meal and a bag of swag?

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Cruz is the top free market candidate on the GOP side.
Why would Koch oppose him ?

[Calpublican]

Rubio = Romney 2016

paul meeting with sharpton. should have been end of discussion that day.

[G Larry]

I can only guess they prefer Marco’s amnesty view.

Have we seen the Koch Brother’s view on immigration?

[DoughtyOne]

With what I’ve seen of Rubio and his organization, I agree. Unless something big changes there, I think you’re spot on.

[Vigilanteman]

If you read carefully, it is not the Koch brothers who are opposed. It is a former Koch operative who got fired by the Koch brothers for diverting their money to his pockets and other shady dealings. IOW, a big time hiring mistake which they corrected.

[subterfuge]

I read this as NOT directed by the Kochs, but by a former disgraced employee. Am I wrong?

[House Atreides]

Rubio reeks of dishonesty, betrayal, treason and need for power. He will NEVER get my vote for ANY office.
