He is talking about timing. When it was in the news and they had momentum, Rubio was absent for the vote.
I probably would not have chosen that line of argument, but it is not dishonest.
What difference at this point does it make? You have come into the daily band of Trump fanatic postings where trashing Cruz even in the direct defense of GOPe Rubio to forward your vision is a-ok. Watch all day it’ll be akin to a Grateful Dead groupie session, the same cast all day long following from thread to thread no matter the validity. But you are correct it wasn’t dishonest at all and those within this thread posting otherwise prove that progressives truly do stick together. Even if it is at the support of a GOPe member. Why not though when you’re cantidate is an avowed liberal?

Cruz, running as the “moral” candidate, has now repeatedly done questionable, shady, and dirty. Those are not unfair or inaccurate characterizations.
Again, Rubio or Trump could follow this because they aren’t running as “God’s man.” He has a real problem because he is trying to have it both ways-—having yhe support of the Suoer-religious while engaging in politics as usual and dirty tricks. It has already hurt him.
