Sunday on a special edition of Fox News Channel’s “Your World,” former Sen. Bob Dole (R-KS), the 1996 Republican presidential nominee, criticized Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), a candidate for the 2016 Republican nomination, on the eve of the Iowa Caucuses.

Dole ripped Cruz for being “an extreme conservative” and argued Cruz would shut down the government given the opportunity.

The term "RINO" officially has jumped the shark.

Never thought much of Dole as a politician.
He reminds me a lot of Bush...Getting slammed by Dole is probably a badge of honor...

Dole, Bush, McCain, Romney, can you find a difference?  I join those supporting Cruz in denouncing this.

For the record, Dole said he supports Bush, but would vote for Trump over Cruz. Dole must be suffering from dementia if he thinks Cruz is the RINO in the race. Cruz - not my first choice by the way, to show my honesty - is the most consistently conservative candidate running.  If he is a RINO, the rest of the pack are Bernie Sanders clones.

Romney's the only one without any military service?

This says a lot more about Dole than it does anyone else.

I was listening to him today. It was so pitiful. I felt like he really didn't know what he was saying. I really don't think he should be doing interviews he sounds so frail.
