Marco Rubio Rumors Ramp Up
Fits News ^ | 12/4/2015 | Fits

MSM CHASING THE "MISTRESS BOMB "BUT IS THERE MORE THAN ONE?

Numerous national media outlets are pursuing multiple allegations of infidelity involving U.S. Senator Marco Rubio of Florida , all in the aftermath of the "mistress bomb" report we published earlier this week.

Specifically, three mainstream media outlets have independently supplied us with the names of two additional women said to be romantically linked to the GOP establishment's candidate of choice. These names are in addition to the woman we referenced earlier this week , a lobbyist whose alleged proximity to Rubio was discovered during a deep dive into the candidate's disastrous personal finances.

Meanwhile, a national operative familiar with the opposition research on Rubio described his extramarital dalliances as "serial."

"He is going down," the operative told us point blank.

So: Will one of these national news outlets pull the trigger? Will we?

We'll see .

Frankly, we're conflicted when it comes to stories like this.

Rubio's personal life doesn't really impact our view of his candidacy: We reject him on principle based on ideological considerations. In fact our founding editor Will Folks , a rabid libertarian , told a group in Northern Virginia this week that the percolating Rubio affair rumors were the "first redeeming thing" he had heard about his candidacy.

"I don't care who he's slept with , more power to him," Folks told the group. "What I care is he cast the deciding vote in the U.S. Senate in support of Obamatrade."

Yup.

Of course those with a vested interest in bringing Rubio down don't really care what it takes to accomplish that objective.

Which brings us to the other key component of this unfolding drama: Who really has the knives out for Rubio? And more to the point: Does the overt hostility directed toward Rubio by former Florida governor Jeb Bush's campaign provide the perfect cover for other candidates looking to take him out?

Yes, it does.

Exactly. Rubio is a flawed candidate. Doesn't matter if this is true. It will be used against him if he rises in polls.

Fox News is extensively pushing him. Every FNC show I have watched these past few days has featured Rubio: Greta, Kelly File, even Judge Pirro, and others.

Could be. If true, Rubio might pull a Jimmy Swaggart. Might not work for him, but he seems to have Fox pulling for him.

Lots of folks from FL playing coy!

If Rubio goes down then Cruz has things thing warped up. Lots of Rubio support will go to Cruz, and Cruz is already soaking up Carson supporters.

“Affair or not, what I want to know is why Rubio paid for 17 airline tickets for a female lobbyist with his GOP credit card.”

Because he’s not bright enough to think he would get caught?

and they didn’t get interested in John Edwards until after the election, so maybe this is a good thing ?

I believe the credit card misuse was documented by the Romney campaign when they vetted Rubio for VP.

I read part of the report at Conservative Treehouse several weeks ago.

If you click through these reports you’ll see Amber Stoner’s name popping up:

.
The GOP has not released the results from any of their internal polls.

Are you a seer? (or a common liar?)

Their actions show little to no concern over Trump; mostly frustration with Jeb’s fall. The candidate against whom they have directed their wrath is Cruz.

Cruz is who they fear. Trump’s well known negatives tell all that the support from dropouts will definitely not be going toward Trump.

“Conservative Treehouse” is a very decidedly un-conservative GOPe site.

Beware of what you read there; little is factual.

His brother did the same with McCain in South Carolina during his first primary. It is why McLame always has hated G.W.

If you consider the things you normally post as “factual” I will stick with Conservative Treehouse.

Thanks!

What people are forgetting with regard to Trump is the blue collar democrat vote Hillary won’t be getting and neither will Sanders. Trump will get all those votes. That is a fact.

Trump has a very broad appeal. People love rooting for an underdog but more than that people love associating with a rich, successful person and he is all that.

Trump/Cruz or Cruz/Trump everyone wins

Well, whatever it takes to keep her happy, I suppose....

A semi-bald one term senator has multiple mistresses? I knew there was a shortage of good men but this is ridiculous!

The line of 8s and 9s who are applying for the job is at least two miles long.

The love of office isn't just about money, you know.

Maintain propriety? LOL. Rubio is a man. Propriety flies out the nearest window when a hot chick ready to snuggle comes in view of most men, ambitious men are even more susceptible because of the megalomaniacal ego. We lived through the perfect example of the ambitious ego with a zipper problem, William Jefferson Blythe Clinton. Yes I remember his propriety well and how he shook his finger in my face and told me he did not have sex with that woman, Miss Lewinsky. Hell look at Trump and his ego. He has three gorgeous wives under his belt.
