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.

Because Trump, who can’t seem to break the 32% support level, has eliminated the only other non-establishment candidate in the race. Its increasingly looking like it’ll be Trump against a RINO.

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

Morris says Rubio can’t win. All I can think to say is “Congratulations, Rubio.”

Mario Rubco can’t win because he’s a duplicituous backstabbing weasel and Americans aren’t going to give him more knives

Trump can sh**t himself in the middle of the Fifth Avenue and not lose a single supporter.

It stands to reason a hotel/casino magnate would do well in Nevada.

I'm referring to his average.

Tow sucker is correct, for once.

Rubio should bow out, as should Carson and Kasich.

The establishment needs to get used to the idea of compromising with Cruz to prevent the liberal disaster that is Trump.

Rubio shot himself in the foot when he let the old thieves in the Senate lead him down the Garden Path with the Gang-Of-Eight.

To true conservatives Rubio is and always will be a marked man, not to be trusted on the issue of illegal immigration.

“Trump can sh**t himself in the middle of the Fifth Avenue and not lose a single supporter.”

True. But the only voters who might — might — support him would come from Cruz. Otherwise, he is stuck at 30ish.

Cruz, ironically, is the only hope.
