Rubio to Levin: "The Only one who fits... is Ted Cruz"
Conservative Review ^ | 04/12/16 | CR Wire/Mark Levin

Posted on 04/12/2016 7:27:55 PM PDT by writer33

On tonight's episode of LevinTV Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) joined Mark Levin in a wide ranging interview. The two touched on a host of topics, including Rubio's future political plans, his foreign policy vision, and who he thinks should be the president.

When Levin asked Rubio who he would be supporting for the corner office, Rubio said that his delegates are bound on the first ballot. He added that on subsequent ballots, "I hope that they'll nominate a conservative." Rubio added, "the only one[presidential candidate] that fits that criteria is Ted Cruz."

We elect people who, with alarming regularity, turn out to have been lying about how conservative they were all along.

Which is pretty much the whole story of how Marco Rubio became a Senator.

An in depth expose on conservatism. If you haven’t, now is your chance to sign up for Levin TV. Don’t miss full throated conservatism on display.


Thanks soo much for posting this...Did not know Levin had sunk so low as to bring on Rubio to attack Teddy Bear Cruz....But then Cruz and Rubio are both Borders Buddies as the pictures in #4 show.

Thanks again!!!

According to the rules as they currently stand, Rubio’s delegates are free to vote as they wish even in the first round if he says so. I’m sure Marco Rubio knows that.

Looks like Levin needs to add a chapter about himself to “Plunder and Deceit”... Using his lyin’ tome as BBQ starter this weekend.

The is huge news. It basically puts Cruz in a tie with Trump.

It also takes ‘lil’ Marco off the table for Trump.

Unless Trump does deal with Cruz or Kasich.

Kasich views are VERY incompatible with Trump. Would not want to see a trump/Kasich deal or a Cruz/kasich deal.

Levin is a professional conservative; he makes his living off it.

The path for Cruz becomes smoother and clearer.

I’ll get my full throated conservatism without listening to somebody who is a globalist and all in for amnesty like Rubio. Small wonder that Rubio likes Cruz.

Indeed, win at all costs, end justifies the means.

Where do you come up with this?

Cruz seeking support from delegates if no one reaches 1237 on the first ballot is by no means nefarious. He is seeking the nomination of a political party. He is trying to build coalitions and allies. Trump has come up short in this area because he lacks the organization and the temperament. Trump seems to think he can win the nomination without a serious organization and that once he has the nomination everyone will just fall in line. Most people who follow politics know this is not going to happen and that's why a lot of people are worried about losing the Senate and maybe the House if Trump is the nominee.

Yes, by losing southern, evangelical conservatives, lying, deceit and relying on other candidates who have dropped out of the race to get enough delegates to maybe come close...until next week.

I think so to, but Trump is the only one who has a realistic shot (a long shot) at getting to 1237. Also, there are some unbound delegates on the first ballot and he might be able to make a deal to get their support. Trump will have a pretty good couple weeks with the primaries in the northeast.

Have you checked the delegate count lately? Trump has come up short? He’s two hundred plus ahead of Cruz and is about to pick up a substantial number more.

"The only one who fit’s what?"


When I first glanced at the title for this thread, the initial thought that crossed my mind was that Rubio was talking about one of his "foam parties", saying that Cruz is the only one of the remaining candidates who fits in there.

(I was thinking that Kasich would probably fit in there too.)

Trump is calling Hillary liar.

The thing is it rings hollow after calling Carson a pathological liar , lyn’n Ted and ‘lil’ Marco a worse liar than Ted.

Trump may have shot all his ammo in the primary.

I still think that Trump/Cruz is out best shot.

Kasich wants to destroy religion and allow men in women’s restrooms. A bit much for a republican.

Rubio is a genius. By keeping his delegates, it makes it nearly impossible for anyone to get to 1237. Releases on second, go to Cruz.

Wonder if Trump regrets all those stupid personal attacks.
