Before Iowa and New Hampshire, GOP candidates are competing in the Sheldon Adelson primary, and some will travel to his posh Venetian hotel in Las Vegas this in hopes of winning it. But one candidate — Marco Rubio — has emerged as the clear front-runner, according to nearly a half-dozen sources close to the multibillionaire casino mogul. In recent weeks, Adelson, who spent $100 million on the 2012 campaign and could easily match that figure in 2016, has told friends that he views the Florida senator, whose hawkish defense views and unwavering support for Israel align with his own, as a fresh face who is “the future of the Republican Party.” He has also said that Rubio’s Cuban heritage and youth would give the party a strong opportunity to expand its brand and win the White House.

Adelson is also fine with gay marriage.
One tiny problem is that Marco has been a sneak and fraud on amnesty. For me, that is a disqualifier. Bob
Adelson’s record isn’t good. President Newt was never a possibility.
He kept Newt alive last go-round
The Cheap Labor Express wil spend whatever it takes to prevent us from electing anyone who will stop the cheap labor importation/invasion that they like to confuse with immigration.
I will not vote for national suicide.
Yes he did. He was most afraid of Rick Santorum and quickly switched to Romney after it was clear Newt was going nowhere.
I'll give Adelson credit for the brains to understand that we need a somewhat prosperous country for him and his minions to loot slowly.
Unlike ObaMao who wants to loot us as quickly and completely as possible.
Paging, Sheldon Adelson....
Ted Cruz is a fresh-faced American of Cuban ancestry, has hawkish defense views, and strong support of Israel.
Sen. Cruz is NOT an open borders guy, like Rubio.
Adelson wants to hire illegals to work in his Vegas mega-hotels. That’s why Rubio fits the bill for Adelson.
Sheldon Adelson is worth more than $30 billion. For the life of me, I can’t understand why he can’t hire Americans at decent pay and benefits rather than illegals.
It wouldn’t even put a dent in his vast net worth.
