    About two weeks ago Trump had a 20 point lead over Rubio in Florida. On Monday a Monmouth came out showing Trump had an 8 point lead over Rubio.

    Here is one reason why Trump will lose to Rubio in Florida. This ad was paid for by a Super Pac that backs Rubio and is blanketing the airwaves in Florida.

    I don't think people want a President that is this vulgar and crude.





    Nancy Reagan's funeral will be in the news this week (her funeral is Friday) This will remind people of how classy Reagan was and how he respected the office of the Presidency. They will be able contrast Reagan's demeanor with Trump's demeanor and that will push many people away from Trump.

    I don't know. Remember that four years ago a lot of evangelicals were saying they were electing a President and not a pastor. I don't think that a large part of the GOP really cares about his vulgarity. If they REALLY did, it would have been a problem for them.

    And even if it was an issue, they certainly weren't saying anything. To take issue NOW kinda makes it look like folks are just taking part in the establishment "anybody but Trump" parade.

    Please take a day off from Breitbart News. It will do you a world of good.

    You do understand that Briebart is not the only one reporting on this correct?

    Mitt Romney is a decent man. I can't even imagine him saying a curse word.

    Surely you can see the difference between Romney and Trump's temperament.

    The MSM has not shown Trump and his cussing. Trump is such a hypocrite. In a recent debate he said that the president of Mexico "used a bad word, a very bad word". Yet, this is a word that Trump uses a lot.

    Parents don't want their children to use words like the ones Trump uses. I think this commercial will be a subliminal gut shot to Trump.

    Of course. Other news outlets have reported on it, but they don't run an anti-Rubio story every day, like Breitbart does. It's one thing to say, "Donald Trump has small hands, and you know what they say about small hands". And quite another to say, "GO F*&$ yourself!"

    Even if that were true would that make what they say any less truthful?

    Uh no, they are equally crude. One is as bad as the other.

    I wonder if the average 10 year old would agree with you?

    This is quite true. Romney is not my favorite (in fact, I wrote in Ron Paul last time rather voting for Mitt). However, Mitt definitely has more presidential temperament than the vulgarian Trump.



    Yep, he's certainly a poor example for the yoots.

    Children are very astute at detecting hypocrisy. Apparently, given the support they give to Trump, the average evangelical is not.

    So are they the standard, in your mind, for hypocrisy or for the weight certain vulgar language has? You've lost me.

    No, I never said they were the standard. I said they would consider Trump's cussing to be worse than Rubio's innuendo about Trump's hands.

    When Trump says, "the reason I was audited by the IRS was because I am such a strong Christian" and then turns around and lays F-bombs all over the place, well, that's hypocrisy that any 10 year old can spot. Apparently the average evangelical cannot see this, however.

    How is that different? And if you did not intend for them to be the standard why even bring them up? They aren't going to vote.

    Does this really need to be explained to you? Better go ask the TV network executives why they insist on beeping out words from Donald Trump, but allow Rubio to say, "small hands."

    You're the one banging on about children being made into a standard. Surely, a person can point out a 10 year old has enough brains to figure something out without that automatically implying that children are meant to be some sort of standard.

    Good grief you brought up the children in a discussion which had nothing to do with them. It seems to be nothing more than a silly attempt to defend Rubio at all costs. He has lost. He is dead weight.

    Those supporting Trump don't care. It's as simple as that. Unless everyone in Florida has had their radios and TVs off for the last few months, there is nothing in this ad that is going to have an impact.

    Dude. Trump supporters know what they're fighting. They're fighting the party that for the sake of their agenda justified their man sodomizing an intern in the Oval Office with a cigar. I don't see Trump's people rolling over for some salty language.
