Marco Rubio's top campaign adviser huddled with roughly 40 bundlers and K Streeters Tuesday morning to prepare them for a difficult primary election night—as well as to brief them on the campaign's plan for what to do next.
Terry Sullivan told supporters at campaign headquarters that the Florida Republican could secure just 100 delegates from Super Tuesday states in one of the scenarios he laid out.
Sullivan's prediction was part of his larger detailed powerpoint presentation going through different delegate counts for March, April and May. He told attendees that it would be mathematically impossible for Donald Trump to get to 1,237 delegate votes by the end of April, according to multiple attendees.
Sullivan said that Henry Barbour, a veteran Mississippi political operative, is leading Rubio's convention delegate strategy.
Several sources familiar with the meeting described it as an exercise in lowering expectations for how well Rubio needs to do in order to stay in the race for the White House.

Sung slowly....and sadly for Rubio.....look away, look away, look away, Dixie land.
Haley how did that snake get any power
He really made fun of Trump’s hands...??????
To be a Rubio supporter, one must have already done that a few times...................
If Cruz and Trump make up and cut a deal thats over 50%^
No. Marco made fun of Trump’s penis size. Because Marco is a size queen.
Well, bye, Rubio.
Rubio will be extremely lucky to get 100 delegates. If Trump does as well as most of the polling shows, he’ll pick up probably 250-300 delegates, maybe more. Then he’ll steamroll all the primaries and caucuses on March 5, 6, 8 and 12. Then, on March 15, he could take all six WINNER TAKE ALL contests. If that happens, Trump would probably have more than enough delegates by mid-April.
Romney prepping to intervene....
Great. Two months of Trump supporters telling GOP pukes we won’t be voting down ticket after they broke “the pledge”.
Blood donors?
Probably a prudent move........
: )
Romney prepping to intervene....
Romney already has. Follow Sen. Sasse. He’s Romney’s straw man. They are laying the ground work big time for a “conservative” 3rd party run to throw the election to Hillary.
Perhaps a soothing Foam Bath, would calm his nerves.
You think Romney want’s to go up against Battleship Trump?
Rubio "0"
Rubio can pop another pill.
The campaign strategy is to show up at the convention having won few or no states and win on a brokered convention?
That will cause the GOP problems it doesn’t want to face.
They’d be better off to get on the Cruz or Trump trains now.
Rubio ain’t Goldilocks.
