ha ha - The Don kicked them in the groins
“You know who has the tickets to the
television audience?” Trump said. “Donors,
special interests, the people that are putting
up the money. That's who it is. The RNC told
us. We have all donors in the audience. And
the reason they're not loving me—the reason
they're not—excuse me. The reason they're
not loving me is, I don't want their money.”
Kerry would get destroyed. He is the ultimate loser.
I would vote for any of the GOP candidates over Hilldog, Bernie, Kerry, Biden or Bloomberg. This country cannot take any more of the divisive liberal BS agenda of trying to fundamentally change the country. The Dems have set this country back by at least 20 years in just about every category you want to look at.

I only saw the second half of the debate...Rubio looked fine. Sounds like the first half must have been really bad.
He had a very rough night. Christie pummeled him. And Carson exposed Cruz as a liar about the Iowa snafu right out of the box and he was deflated the rest of the night.
If the nominee is anybody but Trump, Cruz, or Carson, I'm voting Libertarian.
I'm worried that the fix is in for Jeb because they keep trotting him out in the debates and keeping Carly Fiorina out when she polled higher than him in NH.

On Friday Rubio told Hannity that on day one he would repeal all of Obama's executive actions and issue his own directing the federal government to stop all activities supporting common core. He also said he'd sign a bill to repeal Obamacare - if the republican ******* in Congress can get a simple majority together on it - as soon as it hit his deck, and approve the Keystone pipeline.
He's not my first choice but those are outstanding positions and I will happily cast my vote for him against any dem on election day if he is the nominee.

Fact checking and Huffington Post should never be used in the same sentence.
No thank you.

Jim jones and Charles Manson had charisma. Don't confuse charisma with leadership ability.

Biggest problem with Rubio's debate performance is he gave the Dems a general election campaign ad that
would skewer him in the GE. I think Christies strategy is get Rubio out and then come after Trump.

no, you do not comprehend the vast amount of intellectual resources required to exercise such a mental process.
Damn 21, I knew you were clairvoint.
Whoops.
"Chris Christie dropped out of the race for president on Wednesday afternoon, two hours after a rival candidate quit."
Note to self...Supe knows best.
Another ***** slap for Rubio in Drudge today......

ICE Council President, Crane represents the nation’s approximately 5,800 frontline ICE officers, agents and personnel who are responsible for enforcing America’s immigration laws in all 50 states and U.S. territories. For the first time ever, Crane details his behind-the-scenes interactions with Florida Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL)
Crane was integral to stopping Sen. Rubio’s amnesty plan from passing the House—which, as Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) recently explained, “was a near-run thing.”
BNN: What happened during the press conference when you tried to ask Sen. Rubio and Chuck Schumer to take a question?
CRANE: I was polite, professional and respectful at all times. I didn’t interrupt anyone or cause a scene. The press was there, but Sen. Rubio and the rest of the Gang of Eight had also filled the large room with amnesty supporters and open borders people to cheer and applaud the Gang of Eight every time they said something. It was a real dog and pony show, sort of a circus.
In his responses, Crane addresses an incident—first detailed by Breitbart News— in which Marco Rubio stood idly by as Crane was ejected from a Gang of Eight press conference for trying to ask a question on behalf of law enforcement.
BNN: In your letter, you specifically protested that the bill would legalize gang members. As an ICE officer, how do you feel that this provision was left in the bill?
CRANE: It disgusts me. Violent street gangs were literally able to lobby Sen. Rubio and the Gang of Eight more effectively than law enforcement, they had more influence on the bill than we did. Gangs were able to get provisions in the law to protect themselves. It’s absolutely insane. What on earth are our lawmakers thinking? I think it’s this type of utterly stupid lawmaking that has caused most Americans to lose faith in Congress.
BNN: What do you make of the fact that some of the same people who funded Sen. Rubio’s immigration plan are now funding his campaign?
CRANE: I think it’s clear that open borders and amnesty proponents are trying to buy their way into the White House. I think that if elected President, Sen. Rubio’s Gang of Eight bill will be reintroduced and this time it will pass. Voters beware.
BNN: Sen. Rubio has said in several settings that he would not immediately terminate DACA or rescind amnesty papers already issued– what is your response to that as an ICE officer?
CRANE: DACA has resulted in tens of thousands of children being thrown across the U.S. border. Countless numbers of these children have been sexually assaulted, murdered or become trafficking victims – and they just keep coming.
If Sen. Rubio were truly concerned with protecting these kids, he would immediately terminate DACA and remove this carrot that continues to draw these children and place them at risk. Many politicians just don’t seem to get it: enforcing our laws saves lives; it is the truly humanitarian approach to our immigration problems.
Not exactly a glowing endorsement from law enforcement..........
CRANE: In my opinion, Sen. Rubio absolutely knowingly mislead the American people regarding the bill. He was not telling the American public the truth about what that bill contained. Every American will have to determine on their own what that says about his character, but for me I don’t think I’ll ever be able to trust him again.

From Breitbart...
Rubio has been planning to run for president since right after he got into the U.S. Senate, something that may explain Rubio’s serious delinquency as a U.S. Senator. Rubio has the worst attendance record—for voting and for committee hearings, including hearings regarding matters of national security—of any member of the U.S. Senate at this time. A senior adviser to Trump, Stephen Miller, even went so far on Wednesday to suggest that Rubio has “defrauded” the taxpayers of Florida and should repay his salary of more than $1 million over his time in the Senate back to the treasury with interest.
