Just as Trump is not falling in the polls.

The media is trying to whip the primary in the direction they want it to go, and they are failing.

The only Cheap Labor Express candidate that has gained in the polls is Carson.

Rubio’s career was finished when he started hanging out with the Gang of Eight

Amnesty Rubio is not going anywhere.

Fox News has become a joke with their obvious propaganda.

Rubio has a big flaw. He trusted Schumer and company and its really hard to get past that. He has managed to hold on because he is both an attractive candidate and a well spoken one. I really used to love Rubio and Rand Paul but both have become such tools. I’d still vote for them before Bush or Kasich but I no longer have any passion for them. Rubio if he can woo Bush funders to his side may have a chance but if he doesn’t he will go the way of Paul. I don’t see Bush giving up the ghost till after New Hampshire but I do believe his supporter will eventually bail because if Jeb or Rubio don’t win Florida they are going to have a hell of a time making the case for continuing their candidacies.

No Signs of Actual Momentum

Media are about as hapless as the GOPElites. The candidates they are pushing don't seem to be making any advancements. The Media is likely worried they have lost their ability to influence.

They pushed Kasich as the miracle winner of the 1st debate. Since then, Kasich has remained in the single digits.

They pushed Fiorina as the miracle winner of the 2nd debate. Since then, Fiorina seems to be struggling to stay within double digits of Trump.

Recently they have been trial-ballooning Rubio as Bush sinks.

And Trump is still making headlines and leading in most of the polls.

Personally, I’m largely on board with this Rubio-will-win-by-default line of thinking.

how stupid can you get?

The flaw in this article is the old thinking about a silly season and that Trump is not serious. Every leading candidate has never held elected office. We just kicked out Boehner and denyed McCarthy the speakership. What makes the author think voters are being silly and will fall in line?

News of Rubio surging is a con on Americans.

Rubio would be a great president...so would Cruz...

then again, so would have Rudy, or Fred Thompson....

but Trump and the rat cabal are doing what they are paid to do: destroy pub candidates early on.....

why is Trump attacking republicans and not attacking bammy, hitlery, Bernie, etc 24/7?

Politically speaking, the only thing that can give the gop-e a chance, is for Bush to drop out. But, Bush and the gope are too obstinate.

Rubio is the neocons’ boy. They have the $$$ and the media.

He sounds like a sissy, but that's not his fault (upper-class Spanish speakers have a kind of lisp. Cruz has it to a lesser extent). It makes him a terrible candidate.

He's a bright guy. But, he obviously decided that he will out war-monger everyone else to get the neocon/Cheney/Bush/McCain power base. And the strategy is working. Just watch the neocon press pretend how brilliant he is ... when he isn't. If you like Rubio, you'll LOVE Lindsey Graham.

You want your kids to fight Russian kids in Ukraine & Syria? Vote for this whore.

But it’s worth noting given the current hype cycle that, to date, he has yet to translate the buzz into anything tangible.

Here is a Trumpism:

"The only buzz generated by Rubio is that of the flies surrounding a putrid campaign"
