The anti-GOPe can't afford a divided vote.
Don’t bet on it... The idea that if the GOPe rally’s behind Rubio in a 2 man race, that Rubio wins is not supported by facts at this point.
The assumption all of Cruz’s supporters would go Rubio is a huge myth. Combine that with the fact that Cruz and Rubio combined generally are polling under 40% in most national polls, doesn’t bode to Cruz dropping = Rubio will win.
Time will tell. Cruz endorcing Rubio will probably anger a good segment of his backers who honestly thought he was a principled conservative, and anti amnesty... yet if he endorces Rubio he shows that he isn’t and that segment of his support will either stay home or go elsewhere.
“Probably the only logical choice at this time since the GOPe is now putting all their eggs into the Rubio basket.”
Except such a plan assumes ALL Cruz’s votes go to Rubio. They won’t.
