So I looked up the Rubio amendment to the Iran deal. Thanks again! Rubio wanted to include in the deal that Iran recognize Israel's right to exist. How anyone could compare that to what Cruz did with the Gang of 8 amendment is ridiculous. Rubio clearly introduced a poison pill while Cruz was hoping to get his name on the Gang of 8 bill. No comparison, imo.bolzano said:

You are right. Damn it... that's it. I am not voting for Rubio anymore. 
Isn't a total jackoff who contradicts himself in pretty much every statement he has made in the last 9 months enough?
Hey if Rubio wins, or comes in a close 2nd, that's a different thing altogether.bolzano said:
If Rubio hits a 2nd in Iowa that is actually a huge momentum change when the voting actually starts counting. He could parlay that into being the sane choice for the GOP nomination and gather more support. It very well could be a game changer.
The rumor was, although the Rubio camp denied it, was hoping he would get 3rd in Iowa, second in NH, then having momentum to start taking some #1 spots.
The way I'm hearing it is they're hoping for a 3rd place that lands him closer to 2nd than to 4th - the hope being a huge gap between him and the remaining field to drive the narrative that establishment votes should unite behind him.
So when Trump wins in NH handily this next week and Nevada in 3 weeks, are you going to come back in here and admit that this is obvious Trump fear on your part? The guy missed by a couple percentage points to a lifelong politician who won't play well Nationally. The GOP is in serious problems if ted Cruz is being sent out there as the GOP candidate. He is like nails on a chalkboard for many. Trump hosted one of the most successful reality TV shows for 10 years, people from both sides tuned in and watched the Apprentice, Cruz won't get 35% of the vote if he runs vs Clinton IMO. He appeals to far right and tea party types, that's not the majority. He didn't get but 30% anyways, he isn't speaking for the majority yet.
This is pretty loopy.
Trump finished a whopping 3 percentage points or less behind Ted Cruz.
The media is talking non stop about how they basically tied but Clinton won on some tiebreaker. That's gold for sanders' campaign. Sanders just established himself as the not-hillary vote and a sympathetic figure. Clinton needs some positive press right now, and she hasn't had much recently. Sanders may not win votes on his own but he would be happy to win by default especially if he can do it without having to go negative himself. There isn't a third option who's going to emerge to contend with sanders for the not hillary vote.
He doesn't. What comes out of his mouth is strictly driven by how many votes it can produce. He's the R's Hillary. He, like her, reeks of 'in it for himself.'
That is the only world he has lived in since he became an adult. He is so far out of touch with the bartender and the maid.
It sounds like the smoke about Cruz having his team tell caucusers that Carson is dropping out leads to a real fire. I don't think that's going to play well.
yeah, Jindal and Santorum's endorsements are a negative.
He says he won't endorse anyone in the primaries but will fully support the eventual nomineeyeah, Jindal and Santorum's endorsements are a negative.
That makes sense. I don't blame him.He says he won't endorse anyone in the primaries but will fully support the eventual nomineeyeah, Jindal and Santorum's endorsements are a negative.
A number of his supporters have rallied behind SandersThat makes sense. I don't blame him.He says he won't endorse anyone in the primaries but will fully support the eventual nomineeyeah, Jindal and Santorum's endorsements are a negative.
