Rubio reminds me of Rufio in “Hook” all full of bluster and greedy for Pan’s place as leader but not up to the task and is killed by Captain Hook. In the end he’s just another lost boy.

Rubio avoids conflict, talks hopefully about the future to the elderly, assembles positions on which he might move either right or left.

Squishiness is not positive trait.

Even at New York magazine Rubio can’t draw defenders.
He is pretty much a no-sale across the political spectrum.

Shall we count the GOPe’s string of next big things? Jeb, Walker, Perry, Crispy, Kasich, Alpha Jeb, Marco and Carly. So now it’s Marco 2.0? Even though he’s polling at half of what Trump is in his home state ?

MmmKay.

Add the worst Cruz. Now Hillary would win 50 states and DC.

This race has demonstrated how crazy ALL our media now is

Far far more out there than when I grew up

Most media is now no different than The Nation

And FAUX is 1975 TIME or US NEWS AND WORLD REPORT
