Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio are basically the same age. And isn't it suspicious that "former" Bush people would be working for Rubio in a year when a Bush is running?

Marco’s personal story is inspiring and motivational and I’ve already heard about six or eight times. Turned his speech off yesterday when he began his story once again. Not sure what the political shelf life of such personal stories is.

And there are more substantive reasons he’s not inspiring many conservatives.

Maybe they want him to play Robin to Jeb’s Batman. Or vice versa.

Rubio is the backup to Bush if he flames out entirely.
I still say Jebster is this cycle’s designated loser.

The RNC will get their amnesty candidate.

Even so, Rubio’s work on the Senate’s Gang of Eight immigration bill remains a problem for conservative activists, despite his assurances that he’s learned they were right to oppose the legislation. “You can forgive people for making one or two mistakes in politics, but when they make a mistake in the big things that you send them up there to put a stop to begin with, people don’t tend to forget that,” says Hill.

"Gee, Marco. I didn't mean to damage your rep. (...ya, right...)"

It is early. It is the time for meh speeches. Testing what works and what does not. Meh is valuable to find in live audience so silent TV audience meh can be avoided.

I happened to catch Jindal’s presentation when I was channel surfing. I had not really listened to him since the time he had the rebuttal to SOTU.

In his recent appearance, he was impressive. He, like Walker and Cruz, was able to ‘talk’ to the audience without referring to notes or reading from a teleprompter.

I am now more open to hearing his positions on various issues.

Who has the worse comb-over at this point—Trump or Rubio?

Getting a whale of a ride using Cruz control.
