Bush and Rubio race to the bottom: 'South Carolina is gonna be a bloodbath,' one Rubio aide says
Politico ^ | February 10, 2016 | Marc Caputo and Anna Palmer

New Hampshire was supposed to be the nail Marco Rubio would drive into Jeb Bush’s coffin. Now, it might be the beginning of Rubio digging his own political grave.

Since Marco Rubio’s entire argument seems to be “Yeah, I suck... But I am the only one who can beat Hillary Clinton”, the New Hampshire Debate Debacle has been very costly.

Every voter with half a brain realizes that if the Democrat triggers Rubio’s Talking Doll Mode during a debate in the Fall, it will be all over. Without the argument that he is a guaranteed win against the Democrat, what is the reason for Marco Rubio?

Trump has way too many skeletons in his closet. He’ll be destroyed and the MSM won’t even break a sweat doing it.

I will be voting for a write in candidate if Marco Rubio and all of his little racial supremacist supporters take the nomination.

Rush Limbaugh has lost all his cred!

About 10 years ago, I gave up on Rush with no real hard reasons. I just felt it was a waste of time listening to him, and I did not get riled up on his so called issues.

Now, we realize that he is in the tank/hot tub with the GOPe elite open border thugs.

Fiorina was pretty much knocked out as well. Can’t believe she is still in! She doesn’t know when to give up! She’s polling 1% in SC.

Acting like she is running for president is the only gig she can get after $crewing up HP.

Does SC have a closed primary?

No, all open. The Dems help elect Graham every time he runs.

I read that 50% of the Republican votes in NH were crossovers. I wonder if those voters will vote the same in Nov.

Who really knows.. Kasich likely got a lot of the liberals who like his Dem lite message.

A surprisingly large contingent of FReepers think he’s immune.....naive thinking, to be sure.

So be it. No difference anyway. Better to let Hillary own the collapse.

Very week argument here for sure. No one can see the future, not even you. We need to elect anyone other than Clinton, Sanders, Biden or Warren. Most of the men and woman that are running for the Republican ticket are worth consideration. This is the best and most conservative field we have had in years. We should not waste it bickering. But rejoicing that for the first time in years we have real choices.

She’s spending a lot of her own money too, right? Go figure.

I wish she, Gilmore, Rubio, and Jeb! would have sense enough to drop out and declutter the race.

Kasich will be blown into confetti in the South. For now he makes a good foil.

Add Carson to the list of those who should drop out.

Oh no that would help Cruz! /Sarc

Carson isn’t interested in helping Cruz.

Umm, you admittedly don't listen and this bit of misinformation proves it. Rush is in no way supportive of open borders. He is spot on regarding the conservative loathing of the GOP establishment which has not done anything we elected them for.

You can choose to not listen to Rush, but don't try to be an authority on his position while doing so.

He was supporting Rubot, who is for open borders.
