Trump maybe a maverick but he's still and oligarch. As I've asked mAny times, what's worse, the puppet or the puppeteer?

Glenn Beck made a very good point this morning. A Cruz/Rubio ticket would be unstoppable and would make up the deficit against Trump in Florida. If the ticket remains split, Trump wins. The rumors that Rick Scott will endorse Trump are everywhere. ‘It’s Unstoppable’: Glenn Beck Lays Out His 2016 ‘Dream Team’ | Video | TheBlaze.com

I'd vote for that ticket, but I'd prefer Rubio/Cruz. They're both young so it really doesn't matter all that much. If they win and do well, the Veep could run for Pres after the first 8 years.

Fossil fuel industry puppet Bush and Wall Street puppet Obama were duds so maybe it's time to find out.

I expect Rubio to bail after he loses Florida in two weeks.

Except that Cruz and Rubio hate each other. But so did Christie and Trump and they are best pals now, so who knows.

No it wouldn't. Cruz would lose more than he gains. He would lose them to Trump. It's funny that Cruz supporters are anti-establishment but now they want the establishment backing them. Beck is wrong AGAIN. Go ahead purists, throw another election.

Independent here. I'd give them my vote over anyone else.........Rubio has no Senate job to go go, can easily Potus in waiting. Can work the legislation and national security angle and Pubs win. Trump on the other hand is no sure thing, will lose re-election. Cruz Rubio might keep the WH for 16 yes total.

what happened to we will support the party nomination no matter what?.....they got Trump to make a pledge now that Trump is winning fair and square now the establishment and a few cry babies here in the party don't want to support Trump if he is the nominee.


Trump is winning this fair and square,,,,against the GOP establishment, against the media and against the Super Pacs and their millions.............I admire that from an outsider and I will support my party's nominee whoever is the nominee when he has won the nomination fair and square.


after 16 years of W BUSH and Obama of endless wars, endless occupations, open borders, bad trade deals, 20 trillion dollar deficit, healthcare cost and premiums way up and median household income down, I will take Trump right now to shake things up in Washington.


you purists in the party that want your "perfect" conservative and bickering like school girls make me laugh.

This is exactly how I feel and your post reads just like something I just wanted to post. Another thing to note is the "anti-establishment" Cruz supporters are now hoping that Rubio joins the ticket so they can get the backing of the Establishment! How much more of a hypocrite can these people be? I too am laughing hysterically over this.
