HOLLIS, N.H. — A candidate is moving up in the New Hampshire polls — but it’s the man who finished third in the Iowa Republican caucuses, Marco Rubio, and not the Iowa winner, Ted Cruz. Below is a comparison of our New Hampshire weighted polling average as it was on Feb. 1, the date of the caucuses, and where it stood as of 2 p.m. today (Feb. 5):

-They have already checked into his background and this story will be revived, further investigated and repeated on an endless loop by the Democrats and the MSM if he ever gets the nomination-
Not that part of his background.
Mickey Kaus, who broke the John Edwards story, said Rubio is of the same ilk.
I was very sad in 2012 to see 2 good candidates kill each other off. They had a better chance against Obama in 2012 than Romney, because both were not afraid to call out Obama for what he was. Romney and McCain are two big sissy’s.
A cheater with a hidden child?
I had not heard of this before.
He stole his clothes detergent?
I think that’s it exactly actually. For three elections in a row, we have had Presidential candidates of increasingly questionable eligibility thrust upon us-McCain, Obama, Rubio, Cruz. For three elections in a row, our constitution has been subverted. A pattern is clearly evident- a pattern of deliberate subversion with the obvious goal of eroding the eligibility requirement in order to facilitate the ascendancy of a foreigner to the office of President. Their next trick will be a move to simply remove article II, section I, clause 5 since we have been ignoring it for “so long” anyways.
I’m really going to enjoy telling all the Trump supporters that “Jimmy Carter was right” after President Trump makes his first Supreme Court nomination.
THAT is why I want the issue solved, once and for all. We could have a Syrian ISIS member launched a well-concealed campaign. A ‘humanitarian’ candidate.
We’ve been there, done that.
Rubio’s past is dubiously dubio? The dancing gay bar guy?
Pffft... five thirty eight, bah. A week ago that idiot was still saying Jebra would win the nomination.
This was actually meant for TigerClaws, my bad.
>>”Trump and Cruz will duel to the bitter end, and clear the path for Marco Rubio.
I definitely agree that Trump vs. Cruz has helped Rubio quite a bit. I disagree it will continue (I think Trump will be gone by Spring), but it may be enough to launch Rubio into the nomination.
Rubio has got the inside track from here on. Cruz isn’t likable although I’m sure he’d make a fine president, and Trump is unelectable, so that leaves us with Rubio, who will do just fine, despite everyone in here yelling Amnesty!
He’s actually the most appealing of the three of them, and will cut the deepest into traditional Dem voter ranks, especially given the mess the Democrats have made of things.
So, now that that’s settled, who would make the best VP choice for Rubio?
If Trump is gone by spring as you think, GOPe will beat Cruz like a drum, along with the MSM. Cruz can not handle MSM like Trump is doing already.
He had a lot of help from faux.
None are. But Rubio's would be easier to obfuscate with the pulbic and in the media. It takes a little abstract thinking for Rubio, but with Cruz, he born in Canada easier for the public to swallow.
Geeeeez .. do you people know anything.
I have not heard any of you tell the truth yet.
With the help of FOX and the media, starting with the last debate - and continuing -
The GOPe, realizing Jebbie can’t win = has turned to Rubio and the media is on board...
Really ratcheting it up after Iowa vote - RUBIO - who came in 3rd - is the BIG WINNER! (Cruz who?) -
