Rush Limbaugh says [crscore]Ted Cruz[/crscore] is “inarguably thoroughbred conservative.”

Monday on his radio show, Limbaugh argued that Cruz is “positioned…ideally” and if something happens to Trump, “We’re not shut out here.”

Limbaugh praised Cruz, “We still have someone in our roster that opposes every bit of the Democrat agenda, perhaps more than anybody else in the race and that’s Cruz. I mean Cruz does not have in his record any statement like Trump does of having supported certain things the Democrats have done. Cruz is inarguably thoroughbred conservative.”

Rush Limbaugh: I think that there is a dark horse in this entire thing, and I think there is one candidate who is positioned here. Now I know that it’s getting late, Trump has had the lead for 100 days here or more. Well he’s been in the lead ever since he’s got in. And there now fewer days until Iowa that he has been in the lead. I mean he is over the hump in that regard. but there is still a long way to go, it is politics. Any number of unforeseen, unpredictable events are potentially out there. And there has been somebody trucking along here steady-eddy that has continued to be who he is and continues to lay down foundational markers for himself and that’s Ted Cruz. And I think Ted Cruz is, is positioned, I would say ideally. I mean, I’m sure, Cruz would love to be in the top two, top three here but of all the others in the race, you take Trump and Carson here  and they’re at number one and number two. Carson has pulled ahead of Trump even in Iowa now in two polls. But overall Trump leads and his lead continues to expand but what if it doesn’t? What if something happens? We’re not shut out here. We still have someone in our roster that opposes every bit of the Democrat agenda, perhaps more than anybody else in the race and that’s Cruz. I mean Cruz does not have in his record any statement, like Trump does, of having supported certain things the Democrats have done. Cruz is inarguably thoroughbred conservative.
