it wouldnt really be surprising if the real reason that rubio is in the race is to be a ‘stalking horse’ for his mentor and good buddy jeb.

That’s exactly his role, same with Graham, Huckabee, Perry, etc.
The RNC wants a flooded field to dilute conservative votes, it’s part of their playbook for nominating a Democrat in an R jersey.
