Romney was toast with or without Christie’s backstabbing..

It doesn't matter. Christie made Drudge's BFF Matt Rhoades look even more incompetent and so it's payback time.

Jeb Bush never had any luster. Aside from the fact that he aided in the dehydration of a helpless woman that resulted in her death, he is a jug headed moron.

Rubio spent every last bit of his capital on his effort to show us that he is a liar, and those efforts succeeded better than just about anything I’ve ever seen. What a putz he is.

So what you are saying is Americans don’t like to compete, won’t compete, can’t compete against immigrants who should be severely disadvantaged by not knowing the culture, possibly having english as a second language, not having connections to the old boy network, probably suffering some level of discrimination and having a total lack of local knowledge.

Of course, the immigrants do have a BIG ADVANTAGE in that they did not get exposed to American education, American drug culture, American slacker morals, and a culture that frowns on doing manual labor.

Before scapegoating the immigrants, maybe we should fix our education system, fix our “I don’t do that work” culture, fix our drug and alcohol problems, and regain our work ethic .

I don’t recall saying that.

I am saying, as clearly as I possibly can, we need as Americans to stop sending US jobs to other countries.

And I am saying, as clearly as I possibly can, we need as Americans to stop importing so much stuff.

Bring back American jobs.

Now.

RUBIO is simply a USEFUL IDIOT for Chuck Schumer and other progressives.

Jeb Bush clearly puts the interests of Mexican and other illegals above the interests of Americans. Simply being married to a Mexican-American doesn’t mean one has to sell out his country.

I could NEVER support either of these loathsome creatures.

If Jeb Bush decides to run, he’ll get the Republican nomination, IMO.

He will have an absolute lock on the top GOP campaign contributors; as we saw with the last election, money talks, especially in the primaries.

As recently as six months ago, Florida, a state with a poor record for producing presidential candidates

Funny. I laugh at how the RNC blames Florida for their poor candidates, like it's Florida's fault? Ha!

Hey, RNC? Do you have any pro-American, non-socialist, non-amnesty supporting, pro-Constitution people left in your establishment party or have you chased them all away?

The Tea Party is raising more money than Karl Rove right now despite the IRS roadblocks that are currently in place. Don’t count your Bush chickens before they hatch.

“Bono might not be on the cover of Rolling Stone every month, but he’s there for the long haul,” said Schnur. Bush and Rubio “are the two Republicans best positioned to reach out to the establishment and the base, as well, in the long term.”

Some so-called "veteran Republican operative"compares Cruz and Rand Paul to Bono.

LOL!

so we now have the compliant democrat media calling out pub candidates...setting the mood...setting the agenda.....

in some of you are falling for it, or in it....

I'd take Marco or Rudy or any other so called "rino" except Marco isn't a rino over any or your rat politicians any day of the week....

you'd think some of you would LEARN that you can never ever vote in democrats ever, ever....

Only because the RNC is pushing Christie.

Christie is a horrible, horrible choice, IMHO. Either Bush or Rubio would be head and shoulders above Christie.

Doesn’t matter if and/or when the elitists who control the GOP tell us Bush or Rubio are the one. After all, “it’s Jebbies turn”...

Your contempt for the grassroots is typical of the ball-less RINOs who think they know everything, yet continue to lose elections.

As far as I am concerned, Rubio did too good a job tearing down the fence to mend it. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Same goes with Rick Scott as far as I am concerned.
