Dick Morris: Why Rubio can’t win
The Hill ^ | 02/23/16 | Dick Morris

Posted on 02/24/2016 3:03:07 PM PST by detective

Chris Christie has crashed, John Kasich is ghettoized, Scott Walker self-destructed and nobody bought the idea of Jeb Bush, and now all the king's horses and all the king's men - and Fox News - are trying to shove Marco Rubio down the throats of the Republican electorate.

But they’ll never make the sale.

Cruz, ironically, is the only hope.

And, ironically, Trump's supporters are working overtime to alienate every damn one of us.

Right and at the end of the day you plan to vote for Monica Lewinsky’s boyfriend’s wife.

“Because Trump, who can’t seem to break the 32% support level”

I guess you haven’t seen the results from Nevada: Trump 43%+! He had double the votes of 2nd place Boobio, more over The Cruzer!

The toe sucker is right.

Thanks! My computer is now wearing my glass of milk! Rolling! I met him once at local ice cream shop, was super nice and gave my grandkids a book he had written for kids about a dog that goes to DC! I liked him, and I agree... he's right! We will NOT allow the GOPe to dictate our candidate this time!

“After wasting millions of dollars on Jeb will the same people waste millions more on Rubio?”

From the reports I am reading I don’t think so. They are now very leery. If they do it will be pennies on the dollar compared to past amounts.

I’m referring to the primaries in general, not the primaries in Reno and Las Vegas.

Cruz campaign hurt by:

1. Attempt to steal Carson’s votes in Iowa

2. Photoshop Ad about Rubio and Obama

3. Phony Ad about Rubio comment on the bible

4. Phony push poll Ads in SC about Trump.

Reputation is like virginity. Very hard to repair after lost.

What do you mean Trump “can’t seem to break the 32% support level?” He won New Hampshire with 35.3% of the votes and Nevada with 45.9% of the votes.

“Trump’s scorched earth tactics will hurt him and the GOP in the general election.”

I don’t believe that. Being a street fighter is exactly what is needed in the general.

Those were unfortunate, but no worse than Trump repeating the Coburn quote that never happened & other false "retweets". Or threatening donors to other candidates. Or Rubio clearly lying about his record.

The difference is Trump has a big mouth, the media want ratings he brings them, and the GOP is more anxious to get rid of Cruz than they are Trump.

“I’m referring to the primaries in general, not the primaries in Reno and Las Vegas.”

In case it’s news to you, there was a Nevada Primary ( just like Iowa) a couple of days ago. Not “primaries in Reno and Las Vegas.” So how is it that in your mind this wasn’t a “real state primary?” Was is that you didn’t like the outcome?

Didn’t Trump just get 45% in NV, isn’t 45 higher then 32?

Nevada's economy depends upon hotels and gambling. Trump is a hotel and casino mogul.

I'm just putting two & two together.

I think “skeeter” is having “Ted Cruz Withdrawal” sstemming from the realization that Ted’s not going to be the nominee.
