Marco Rubio's support suddenly crumbled in a new poll
Business Insider ^ | 7/1/15 | MAXWELL TANI

Republican presidential candidate and US Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Florida) saw his support drop dramatically in a new poll of Republican primary voters released Wednesday.

The CNN poll showed that Rubio’s support has plunged to 6% among likely Republican primary voters. In May, he was leading the GOP pack with 14%.

This drop represents the largest shift among any Republican candidate. Where most candidates remained statistically within the margin of error, Rubio’s drop is the only significant movement up or down among candidates.

Good. I don’t despise Rubio, but he’s just not ready and his immigration position sucks.

Marco Rubio ain't got it.

He got rolled on immigration.

He resigned his Senate Seat to run for President.

He is done.

The guy has a toxic combination of bad judgement and inability to get the job done that no Hispanic can overcome

Media steroids are all that pumped him up in the first place. He’s a favorite of the GOPe, no doubt about that, probably their backup choice if Jeb falters, which is likely.

But when you strip away all the hype and good looks, there’s really not much there. I think most people will rightly conclude that if we’re gonna go the first term Cuban senator route, Rubio offers very little in comparison to Cruz. Cruz is much smarter and far more consistent on conservative issues.

Other results from the CNN poll: "Bush 19, Walker 6, Rubio 6, Carson 7, Huckabee 8, Paul 7, Trump 12, Cruz 3, Christie 3, Perry 4, Santorum 3, Fiorina 1, Kasich 2, Jindal 2, Graham 1"

There are now a bazillion Republicans running.

Bush 19? Trump 12? I can't believe that. (Or if it's true, this is The End.)

I can believe that.

Jeb wont get any bump. The 2nd, 3rd and 4th will get a conservative coalescing bump once the primary arrives.

Why vote for a False Bush when you can vote for the genuine one.

He whored himself out to the Chamber of Commerce on TPA and his position on amnesty changes hourly.

Amnesty Rubio can’t be trusted regarding amnesty.

When the political pressure is on, he backs away. But, true to form, he reverts back.

Since Jeb is very open about his position on amnesty and open borders, Marco may think he, too, can be more open.

==

If you can’t trust them on one issue, you probably can’t trust them on other issues.

But then, there are not many of the dozen+ GOP wannabes that don’t have some kind of trust issues.

But Rubio is Latino! If we don’t get the Latino vote, we’ll lose to Shrillary!

He is done.

Probably not. He will be like Santorum and Huckabee and a few others -- become a professional runner-for-president.
