change his position. he was for legalization. he was for standing worker visas. everybody on the stage except for donald trump is for immigration reform. it s some iteration of it. his biggest vulnerability of it is the immigration fight because of the gang of eight and that is exactly why i think the gop establishment in fact liked him. the problem is, ted cruz, the guy from texas that s been sitting there at the border for years now, it s how he won the senate race when he was running against david dewherst. to imply that he has somehow changed his position aaron they are going to say he was too tough on immigration. one final word, rachel? erin, your guest is right in one regard. marco rubio may lose a few people on the far right in the general in the primary. as they look towards the general, the candidate with
for something as opposed to against everything and we saw that play out in those primaries. one tea party candidate that had a good night, state senator dan patrick, who forced the state s republican lieutenant governor david dewherst into a runoff. what do you think about that? yeah, i think that s exactly what that is, ted cruz really hurt his reputation pretty bad and positioned him as a moderate, and i think we see those chickens come home to roost now and that s exactly what that was. other campaigns elsewhere across the nation, chip, are looking at texas, what s your takeaway? well, i think one thing, texas is an independent state, think different than the rest of the country, but they elected strong, good conservatives in these races that are probably going to win across the board in november. chip saltsman, aisha moody mills, thanks to both of you, we ll be right back.
