UPDATE II: If Allowed, The Rubio Snake Will Charm Trump Into Defeat (Giuliani?)

The establishment might just get its way and see Donald Trump defeated by a nobody like Barack Obama (who was invented as a presidential candidate by Queen of kitsch Oprah). If Trump continues to hammer at the wrong man, the talented Ted Cruz, and ignore the Marco Rubio menace; the front-runner could come short.

CHRIS WALLACE, FOX NEWS ANCHOR: All right. Let’s talk about Marco Rubio and his fitness to be president.

TRUMP: Well, he’s a talented guy. He’s a good guy. I like him. We’re going to have to see what happens.

You know, I start off liking everybody. Then, all of a sudden, they become mortal enemies. So, we’ll see what happens. But he’s been very respectful, very nice. I hope to beat him.

Neoconservative Sen. Marco Rubio was once the deserving object of Sen. Rand Paul’s scorn. Now that Paul and Chris Christie are gone; this charming empty suit seems poised to slither into Donald Trump’s good graces. Trump appears to refrain from attacking individuals if they’re nice to him. This would suggest that so long as they’re nice to him; anyone could become Trump’s running mate or cabinet member.

You’re supposed to deconstruct an opponent’s positions and like or dislike only those.

The foreign policy forays of Rubio—and of John Kasich; I can’t tell with Cruz—will be of a piece with those of Genghis Bush.

Where Trump truly loses credibility to me in is in the way he’s treating Cruz. Trump and Rubio say Cruz is a liar and a bit loopy. This is not immediately obvious from the “evidence” they muster. Cruz’s resume belies it.

UPDATE I (2/22): Crooked prosecutor Rudy Giuliani is Trump’s “campaign consigliere,” reports the New York Post. Is Trump showing his true colors? As I wrote, 03.04.07:

to mention Giuliani without speaking of how he Nifonged Michael Milken is to fail as a libertarian, an individualist, or as an individual who cares for liberty and justice. (I like the verb I’ve just coined: Nifonged.)
