one more thing.. IF You believe Rubio, he’s a a moderate who has no love for the establishment. That is IF you believe him.. he’s a good talker..
But I don’t believe him.. not one iota. And I’m so surprised Rush does.
You are a total fool. I will never vote for Rubio or any of the Republicans besides Trump or Cruz under any circumstances!
I don't like what Rubio did with the Gang of Eight, but every one of these candidates is flawed.
Rubio sided with Chuck Shumer to pass amnesty that would destroy this nation.
Rubio has shown a better ability than Cruz to actually pass conservative legislation, like the knee-capping of Obamacare insurance bailouts.
What conservative legislation has Rubio passed? The beauty of Cruz is that he was in the Senate trying to stop all of this garbage.
been on the dark side since he started visiting WH
Thank heavens somebody has a memory on FR
Rubio thinks we should go to war for Turkey.
I don't like Trump at all and am more of a free trader ( I think you compete by cutting taxes, cutting regulation, etc), but you have, I think, made a very important point that is often being overlooked. The fight isn't just over who is more conservative than who on some scale that we use to measure modern day "conservatives", we are now really fighting over what it means to be conservative - and quite frankly, some of those "populist" ideas that Trump and those that agree with him support have a lot more in common with what unions and the left would support. It is possible we are seeing a realignment, or at least a fight over the issue, of what it means to be conservative.
Cheers.
You are absolutely right, but most of us did not know that.
People are awakening, but not quick enough.
He was dead wrong on that. But no candidate is perfect. I’m with Cruz but I’d definitely vote for Rubio in the general if he’s the candidate.
I know that Rubio's got the baggage of that Gang of Eight bill and I know that in many people's minds he's got the baggage of wanting to grant the current number of illegals citizenship. I understand that. But Marco Rubio is no moderate Republican centrist. I could sit here like anybody else could and try to make explanations for you for why he did the Gang of Eight. I'm not even gonna try to put words into his mouth. I don't want to be seen as making excuses. I'm just telling you, I don't see Marco Rubio as anything other than a legitimate, full-throated conservative.
Conservative has become a political correct word. It means whatever the person using it wants it to mean.
In a NATO role supporting Turkey?
Turkey needs to be kicked out of NATO.
Disclaimer: It won't matter as Trump will be the nominee.
Trump is the only conservative on the issues that really matter; trade and immigration.
Iowa was Cruz's Chancellorsville. An impressive victory on the way to Gettysburg.
But the point is, as Hannity has also been saying for weeks now, I can live with any of the three, as long as Hillary Clinton is not our next president.Amen, presidio9!
You appear to be on the wrong side.
PAC $$ must be veddy, veddy good to these talkers :(
I won’t be voting for Rubio.
Well, Barack Obama denounced NAFTA too and promised to do something about it, but ended up pushing TPP, which is NAFTA on steroids, which the "conservative" elites wanted passed too, such as Marco Rubio. What's really happening isn't a realignment, but a realization that we're being played by Liars and Freaks on both sides of the aisle. What is needed is not YOUR kind of Conservatism, but a Patriotic, nationalist conservatism. Anything else simply plays along with the agenda of the globalists like Rubio, Cruz, and willing propagandists like Hush Bimbo.
