If Hillary wins the nomination,(assured, by hook and crook) and the Republicans run Rubio, its going to be Hillary vs. Lazio all over again. I will predict that she’ll get 52 -53% of the vote against Rubio or Cruz. If Trump runs, he’s going to take the disgruntled Democrat votes and some of the minorities along with many of the Independents. If your goal is to stop Hillary with the Conservative vote, its not going to happen without the support of the outsiders. Conservatives alone will not win the election. Reagan didn’t win the election on conservative votes, some principles yes, but the voters liked the star and his ability to speak without talking down to the voters. Of course I see this through military eyes being defense minded and tend to side with Trump or Cruz. I see Rubio as the establishment candidate who will not upset the status quo in DC in spite of what he says. If you want to understand DC politics, all you have to do is look at the candidates. 16 Republicans and 2 Democrats.(that count) LOL, now is that the best of the best or what? If you ask me, the fix is in. Its all a show to keep the status quo.
I don’t want Rubio. I want Cruz.
Cruz wins in head-to-head polls against Hillary. Trump does not.
