Marco Rubio didn't want to be on the nation's political radar. Not this early in the presidential race. Not with so much time left for rivals to take aim at the big target on his back.

His campaign announced disappointing fundraising numbers Thursday to top political donors gathered at the Bellagio Hotel on the Vegas Strip. Rubio collected about $6 million over the three months that ended Sept. 30 -- far less than competitors Ben Carson ($20 million) and Ted Cruz ($12 million), the only two other candidates in the field who have made their fundraising totals public so far

It’s obvious that the citizens do not share Rubio’s desire to amnesty 30 million illegal aliens.
He and ¡Yeb! should withdraw along with all the other Cheap Labor Express candidates

‘Marco Rubio didn’t want to be on the nation’s political radar.’

Actually it’s Trump’s radar Rubio didn’t want to be on. He saw how that worked out for Jeb and Fiorina, and didn’t anticipate getting the personal treatment himself.
