Marco Rubio is adding another name to his growing list of Senate endorsements with the backing of Tennessee Sen. Lamar Alexander.
Alexander said Rubio would be a "strong and effective president" and touted the Florida senator as "the conservative candidate who can inspire us, win the election and lead our country."
"The stakes are high. If our nominee does not win, Hillary Clinton's justices will control the Supreme Court for 30 years and we'll be stuck with Obamacare forever," Alexander said.
Alexander said he had "watched Marco up close" in the Senate and touted his work on a handful of legislative issues.
"I have seen him take the lead in passing new laws to impose tough new sanctions on Hezbollah terrorists, and to get rid of incompetent managers who weren't doing their jobs to help veterans. He has proposed good new ideas for giving students more options for college," he said....

Marco was hardly ever there.
Well-stated, Eddie01. It's about all you can say at this point.
FULA
The math says Trump will have the delegates required for this nomination.
We will know more Wednesday morning.
If he gets more then 30 pct of the proportional delegates Tuesday night, and holds his leads in WTA states where he currently leads he can eclipse the threshold before the convention.
Early? Yes.
But right now all signs point to Trump.
Very much employed (paralegal). Yep And paying attention. I have come to realize over the years that the GOPe doesnt want an outsider.
This should hurt Marco, but it is TN.
Lamar! couldn’t he’p it; after Orrin came aboard, he couldn’t be left out.
Lamar! has already been secretary of education, under the first Bush.
That would be GOPe for $500, Alex..
Yes, all signs point to Trump. I am still hoping for the Trump/Cruz ticket. How can we deny a conservative and an entrepreneur in the WH?
Will Alexander appear at Rubio rallies wearing his flannel shirt?
He really had to stretch to find any Rubio accomplishments.
>>>Alexander said he had “watched Marco up close” in the Senate and touted his work on a handful of legislative issues
Marco was hardly ever there<<
Lamar was watching him from afar, like a Stalker.
Of course he does.
i suppose now we’re gonna see Rubio show up in a plaid shirt at the next debate, huh?
;)
“Ted Cruz is needing more endorsements, like now.”
Ted Cruz is needing to get out of the race, like now. He is a disgrace.
Another POS
I think Trump will win it outright.
Alexander said he had “watched Marco up close” ....
I was just about to post something....but, thought I’d scroll through first. I see you’ve already posted what I was thinking ;-)
hehe ;)
That oughta be worth one vote - Alexander’s ! lol
