Sen. Rubio Weekly GOP Address

by Smitty Via American Freedom, truly an excellent personal story, excellent ideas, and excellent delivery: Contrast Rubio’s don’t-scare-the-horses delivery with William Kristol at the Daily Standard And the conservative movement?—?a bulwark of American strength for the last several decades?—?is in deep disarray. Reading about some conservative organizations and Republican campaigns these days, one is reminded […]
