Looks like Marco Rubio has been fooling around with a Washington, DC lobbyist. This was discovered as people dug through his sketchy finances. I will remind you that Rubio accused Cruz of making the US unsafer and aiding the terrorists because Cruz insists that the intelligence agencies adhere to the Constitution. Then Rubio ran false ads in Iowa against Cruz and is having to pull them. Is this the kind of guy we want as president? I don't think so. It looks like this is being leaked from multiple sources now. Rubio's run is just about done.
From Qpolitical:
As the 2016 primary continues, more leaders of the political establishment are lining up behind Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL). His campaign isn't close to Donald Trump's in the polls, but Rubio has benefitted from former Florida Governor Jeb Bushâs failures.
But now, a new investigation by a South Carolina insider lets us know that a "mistress bombshell" is about to explode! Multiple sources are confirming Marco Rubio allegedly had an affair, and it's a Washington, D.C. lobbyist.
Supposedly, will soon see her picture everywhere! If true, this changes the landscape of the 2016 GOP primary:
Details of the forthcoming scandal are not yet clear, although the allegation involving Rubio and the female lobbyist is reportedly being leaked to "multiple mainstream media outlets" this week.
FITS showed the webpage we were provided to a presidential operative in early-voting South Carolina. This operative , who has worked on more than one presidential campaign during the current election cycle,confirmed that the woman on the webpage was "a focus" of opposition research against Rubio, however they declined to elaborate on what was uncovered.
All the operative would say was that the woman was identified by researchers during a deep dive into Rubio's disastrous personal finances.
Trump doesn't have to attack his competitors , they do themselves in nicely. If this proves to be true, you can write Rubio off the list of potential nominees. He's cooked. Rubio has been vying for third place with Ted Cruz. In fact, in a number of polls now, Cruz is in second. I don't know who is digging this up on Rubio, naturally, I would suspect Jeb Bush, but they claim to know nothing of it. According to the Daily Mail, Marco Rubio's PAC spent more than $40,000 trying to debunk the whispers that had long haunted the Florida Republican: that he had a 'zipper problem,' mistresses and a love child. Two prominent Bush allies were fingered by Buzzfeed as the voices behind the anti-Rubio whisper campaign. The first was Ann Herberger, a Miami-based political fundraiser who switched teams from Rubio to Bush. The second was a more prominent face in national political circles: CNN commentator Ana Navarro. 'They were circulating the rumors anew among donors and politicos and cautioning them to exercise due diligence before signing on with his campaign,' wrote Coppins. Rumors are swirling, we'll see if there is any fire where this smoke is, but Rubio looks to be in big doodoo.
“I could post essentially the same story from several sites”
Let’s see the links. First you post an anti-Trump story now this, who’s campaign do you work for or support?
Your concern has been noted.
I gave the sites. Look it up. I support Cruz, would vote for Trump, but don’t work for anybody.
Saw those two before photographed with Gen Patreaus, I think down at McDill AFB. They had the same cocked head pose.
I thought the same thing..As I recall, they are ragheads and the CENTCOM staff was partying with them...
I’m waiting on the evidence, too. Supposedly the woman will either come forward or her name will be released next week.
It has been rumored for years that Rubio has had affairs, has two kids by another woman, as well as a mistress who had an abortion. I expect there is a bit of truth to the affairs rumors. Most men in power stray.
The evidence is supposedly tied to Rubio’s finances, which would make sense. If you don’t want the wife to know, use your GOP credit card.
Until I see some pictures, I’ll assume that that this is just a low (no) cost political jab - “Have you stopped beating your wife yet”? “What do you say to allegations that you have had a mistress”?
More pictures please.
Yes, I’m also waiting for evidence. But they never produced any against Cain, and he was forced to withdraw (four years ago yesterday.)
I guess I read your “Hahahaha...love it” wrong...You may not like Rubio, but he is pretty conservative overall. I don’t like his amnesty position. I guess that means you will not be supporting Trump since he has cheated repeatedly since you hate hypocrisy...
So you must believe the article in general was slimy, I take it?
Trump’s life is pretty much an open book. He wasn’t a politician pretending to be lily white. That is one reason people still love Herman Cain.
This kind of thing can be pulled on just about anyone anymore. Even if it isn’t true.
I think Cain dropped out because he knew if he didn’t, a big tawdry mess was going to become public. I think they told him it would all go away if he dropped out, so he did. If he hadn’t done anything, he should have stayed and fought.
It has also been reported that Rubio spent 40,000 trying to keep the lid on this. Guess we’ll find out soon.
Trump for the Win!
Never said that, Mr Projector.
Just didn’t allow you to let your attempt at sliming other candidates pass ;-)
Pun intended, Surrey?
Not projecting anything, just trying to understand your point.
Are you saying that it is slimy to accuse candidates of adultery?
Are you saying its slimy to accuse Trump of adultery?
Are you saying its slimy to accuse Rubio of adultery?
You’re the one saying something is slimy. I’m just trying to figure out what.
Marla Maples?
Lol. No sale.
Yeah, thought so. Coward.
âAllegedlyâ

âNot yet clearâ
âLeakedâ
âCannot elaborateâ
Come on folks...FR is better than this.
Exactly. One would think even those here in FR who despise Rubio — and there are many — would reject cheap-shot character assassination as a political tactic.
