SC is to push him past Cruz to set him up to battle Trump in Florida.

It isn't there. Florida may be geographically close to South Carolina, but politically and culturally (outside the panhandle) they are worlds apart.

South Carolina has a fair number of evangelicals as well, and Cruz has a solid grounf game there. Here in Georgia, Rubio is on the radar, but it's really Trump/Cruz. The southisn't Rubio's turf. He will do better in the northeast and in parts of the southwest, and of course in Florida itself.

Rubio will be riding the wave big time if he gets second in New Hampshire

It's going to be Trump 1, Rubio 2 in New Hampshire.

I don't think there's this big Rubio surge the media is so weirdly pushing though.

The same MSM that is endorsing Hillary is really pushing Rubio. My guess is they think his youthfulness will make her look statesmanlike.

He is right. Rubio is too young and inexperienced - has been described as a cross between Pillsbury Doughboy and used car salesman.

Indeed. But a snapshot of part of the country’s mind. Seems pretty split betwixt 3 candidates to the average Martian. I’m all about pushing the ONE revolutionary candidate forward. If ever there was a time to rock the Kasbah it’s now. Me2 candidates notwithstanding.

Rush is right, Rubio is no Rino. That is factually false. Though I can’t understand for the life of me all the folks that hate the republican establishment and then hate those that are republican in name only. Anyone else see the irony in that. LOL. Rubio is not establishment, they are trying to beat him with millions of dollars. He is the most electable conservative we have. Ronald Reagan would be proud. Or is he a Rino too. :)

It aint about the Ted. Its always been about using the Ted as a firewall to elect Rubio.

Yup. That's why Cruz is getting the "Washington Cartel" PAC money and the Establishment guys running his data mining operation.

Is Marco Rubio Rising In New Hampshire?

No. The MSM are just puffing him like they did with Trump for months.

They fear Cruz, and only Cruz.

His predictions almost like he knows the results before they happen.

Have said all along that a Cruz 3rd place showing in RINO-centric NH will be a success.

Pre-congratuations to Trump supporters on your win next Tuesday.

Don’t be too surprised to see Cruz end up on top when the votes are counted.

Until then expect to see all kinds of BS flying, as they puff Rubio the RINO.

Rush is owned by the MSM who pay his salary.

More likely Cruz, Rubio, Trump in that order.

MSM are playing the same game in NH as they did in Iowa.

Trump is falling, and not helping himself with his loose mouth.
