Is Rubio the most deranged of all?

Flipping channels on the AM radio in my truck yesterday and came across another Right Wing talk show. (apparently we have a variety of those here in Colorado Springs). The host was interviewing Marco Rubio and they got around to the water in Flint.
Rubio saw this as another opportunity to slam big gov't. Said he would eliminate the EPA and turn this kind of thing over to the states.

He is reading a script given to him by ALEC. They convinced him that it is his path to victory.

I doubt he even knows what he is talking about.

It is almost like finding out that that human skinned lizard Cruz actually has insurance coverage, despite his gloating and lying about not having any a few days ago.

This has to be one of the wildest election seasons I have ever experienced in my 58 years.

And now Bloomberg will be throwing his beret into the ring. Ha! All that will do is split the GOP vote.

he's very "opportunistic," which should be translated to "manipulative."

Across the board, he has been ladling rightwing gravy over every item on the menu, swearing it will be even tastier than before.

He seems unoriginal in thought to me. He has very little of John Kennedy's charisma and none of the charm or intellect. I think he's as well positioned to lose the GOP nomination as he is to win it. Mostly it feels like he's hit his ceiling.
