True. But unlike Marco, I'm at least willing to hit him directly. Rubes won't even mention Trump by name. Most of the time, he'll lob an attack his way, but stop short of actually calling Trump out by name. Seems wimpish, IMO.
Pope isn't running for President. Rubes is. If Rubes is unable to take on a clown like Trump, what chance does he have against ISIS?
This is the narrative. Too bad it's just a myth. Rubio only cares about the high road when it comes to Republican. When it comes to Democrats, he's more than willing to spew mud and outright lies. Just yesterday he was talking about how Benghazi proves that Hillary is unqualified to be President. And this is on the heels of his ridiculous assertion that Obama is an evil genius intent on systematically destroying the country. The substance of his attack points are tin foil hat theories. He's really no better than Trump in this respect.
Not sure what this means? But I do know that if you're way behind and still refuse to go after the guy owning you, especially after he bashes you and your parents, then perhaps you don't have what it takes to be President.
First, the New York City values was a tongue in cheek statement.
Bernie has gone after Hillary. Have you watched the debates or heard what he says in his speeches? He just doesn't use the ridiculous conspiracy theories the right uses against her. You really think Bernie would lower himself to bring up Benghazi or emails?
Her believability issue is greater than just the conspiracy theories.
Then you haven't been paying much attention to this election. Bernie has had no problem going after Hillary. He's been attacking her relentlessly for her connections to Wall Street, her use of Super Pacs, her stance of Social Security, and has even gotten into twitter battles with her.
Perhaps you are not taking into account the difference between a two candidate primary and a multi candidate primary. Cruz and Rubio are having to spend time and recourses going after each other because they know one needs to go before they can concentrate all their attention on Trump.
This is a fair point. But then why isn't Rubio going hard after Cruz then? Like Trump, Rubes mostly avoids mentioning Cruz by name and hasn't spent much time criticizing him on the campaign trail. Unless Cruz attacks Marco first, Rubio will generally stay away from that stuff altogether. The only people I see Rubio attack consistently and without provocation are the Democrats. But the problem is that the substance of these attacks suck. They seem to be entirely based on conspiracies like Benghazi that have already been destroyed.
Hillary's problem runs deeper than emails and Bengahzi. The problem has shiftrd from the why to the perception among the majority of Americans that she is not trustworthy. She compounds this when she lies about things like there are no top secret emails on the server. The emails issue has been a disaster for her that an early apology would have put to rest but she decided to go the other way and it has hurt her.
I don't think he can wait that long. Trump clearly has momentum right now and it's going to be too late if he thinks he can pick up the pieces from the Kasich/Bush voters after Super Tuesday. He needs to start hitting Trump now.
Whut? Clinton has been getting both barrels since 1993 by Republicans, just what new horrible things are there out there that are being saved up?
For appearances it is. Cruz looks like he's in his 50s, while Rubio still looks like a baby.
I totally agree that Rubio would give Hillary all kinds of fits, but with one caveat. He has to be strong. He has to bold. But we haven't seen a strong and bold Rubio yet. All we've seen is cautious Rubio. Someone who tries to minimize his mistakes, but doesn't swing for the fences. If cautious Rubio makes it to the general, he'll probably lose. I'm not even sure Rubio has it in him to be bold.
Seems like Rubio is going down the same exact route. He's taking over many of Bush's donors and also trying to play the endorsement game. The money and endorsement advantage didn't work for Bush. Why should they work for Rubio? And you're spot on in pointing out that Trump bullied Bush out of the game. Unfortunately for Marco, Trump's doing the same exact thing to him now.
6 Congressional investigations and 12 hearings into her personally and we haven't seen the GOP blow their load yet? Sure...
To clarify this isn't going to be done by Congress. This is going to be an ad campagne against her. Anything and everything will be thrown out.
My point is that if Congress is willing to do everything in their power to destroy Hillary, what else are ads going to do?
