FULL TITLE: Marco Rubio Campaign in Disarray as Questions Forcibly Surface About His Viability as Presidential Candidate
-----
The presidential campaign of Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) is in disarray as the first-term Florida Senator’s window of opportunity for the White House seems to be slamming shut.
Questions about his supposed viability as a presidential candidate forcefully surface, even inside his own inner circle, amid horrendous performances by the establishment-backed candidate.
CNN’s Jamie Gangel and Tal Kolpan reported late Monday:
A battle is being waged within Florida Sen. Marco Rubio’s campaign about whether he should even remain in the Republican presidential race ahead of his home state primary on March 15, sources say. Rubio himself is ‘bullish’ on his odds of winning the critical primary, despite some advisers who are less hopeful and believe a loss there would damage him politically in both the short- and long-term. Publicly, the campaign is maintaining they are still a contender in this race, touting a Sunday win in Puerto Rico’s primary that delivered Rubio 23 delegates. But privately, the campaign is having a debate about whether he should remain in the mix — even for his home state of Florida’s primary.
Gangel and Kolpan quoted a source familiar with such discussions inside the Rubio campaign—specifically that he should drop out before Florida to protect his dwindling political future—as saying that Rubio “doesn’t want to get killed in his home state.” That source told CNN that in Florida “a poor showing would be a risk and hurt his political future.”

They surfaced years ago when Marco decided to gain Chuckie Schumer’s favor in propelling an amnesty bill into the face of Americans.
He has not nor will he ever recover.
Romney likes a warm chair. If Rubio quits now, its a long time until the convetion when Romney will be coronated, so his chair will get cold if Rubio drops out.
You're joking right?

Had he steered clear of Chuck Schumer he very well could have been leading this race right now.
Cruz is “anti-establishment” is the biggest scam since the big eared kenyan appeared on the political stage.
Cruz is owned by the big donors in his campaign and he's a lawyer. Even if the perfect person is elected (which no candidate is) it will take more than 8 years to restore the Republic. That's why a wall is so important. You need to slow down the illegals so right minded people have a chance to vote in the right people for the next 2 decades.
Cruz's record shows a willingness to fight but no ability to get the necessary people on board to make things happen. He also has no ability to talk around the media. If he were to win the nomination the Media would close him out and go negative on him. If Cruz is the nominee I will vote for him but there is nothing to his candidacy that is exciting. He is just a typical politician, with a typical politician's resume.
One of the most ridiculous statements ever. If Cruz was establishment...he would be loved by the establishment. They hate him. In order to believe this is "a scam"...equal to BHO...which is a DISGRACEFUL thing to say...one would have to conclude the GOPE is acting out hatred for Cruz...for whatever purpose who knows...but that it's all an act.
They ain't that smart.
Trump does that all by himself. He didn't need Rubio's help.
Cruz is a globalist GOPer all the way. With any candidate but Trump we move closer to dissolving what is left of the USA in order to bring about the globalist dream of a North American Union. The rich get much richer and the American and Canadian people get screwed. The Mexican people are already screwed.
He has people on his side. Look at Jim Bridenstein in Oklahoma. jim defeated a RINO. A strong tea-party guy. A revolution is led by people with a vision and character.
So a political career is the only JOB option available to him!?! There still is Coder Camp if he wants to try his hand at IT:-)
apparently in his entire time in the senate only ONE of his bills actually passed. not a resounding success.
He has a political future?
In all fairness to Rubio - Trump was in the mud already, Rubio jumped in and got stuck.
“Never wrestle with a pig. You get dirty, and besides, the pig likes it.”
Not calling trump a pig, but the mud is where he lives and he likes it.
This story seems more a Cruz plant story. (see Carson)
Where has Cruz spend almost his entire adult life? In government. He was in the Bush administration for goodness sake, someone anti-establishment worked for Bush? He is a sitting US Senator! How can a sitting US Senator be an outsider? His wife is a VP at Golden Sachs. You don’t get more insider than Golden Sachs.
...................................................
Facts! Just the FACTS, ma’am. Cruz is a globalist through and through. He’s smarter than those he has conned to vote for him. He is a liar (proven), cheat (not eligible according to the Constitution) down and dirty politician (says one thing, but votes another) PRO NEW WORLD ORDER! I will NEVER VOTE FOR HIM!
Step up your attack game jpsb - do some research. approx. 2.5 seconds if you open a tab, navigate to google, type in “trump ivy league”
“I went to an Ivy League school,” he said on “The Hugh Hewitt Show.” “I was an excellent student at the Wharton School of Finance, which is the best in the world, one of the hardest to get into in the world, maybe the hardest, but maybe one of the hardest to get into, even back then.”
“That’s the kind of thinking our country needs, that mindset,” Trump added. “The fact is, that’s the kind of mindset or thinking we need to beat China on trade. They’re killing us.”
A vote for Cruz is a vote for the eatablishment.
Hurt his political future? Who are they kidding? He has no political future. LOL!
