Well, he won in Florida by lying to the voters. So theoretically, yes. Will he win the presidency? No. He serves as booster for Trump and Trump will serve as booster for Hillary.

We’re doomed.

Actually, Team Cruz has been hitting the territories hard and have some endorsements.

From my understanding the Territories are hardlined establishment.

Rubio is too elitist and inexperienced to win the GOP nomination.

His pro amnesty stand hurts him.

I don’t see him breaking 25%. That’s if every one else drops out.

And they won’t til its too late.

How is Florida shaping up (assuming Bush endorses Rubio)?

With Cruz, Carson, and Trump splitting the anti-ESTABLISHMENT vote, it’s possible he could reel one off.

You are going to see an avalanche of establishment money flow into this guy’s ears like you have never seen.

Bunch of polls should come out starting Monday. Trump is up by over 20%, but those polls are old.

After his comments that police are racist, I hope he can’t win. It would mean 8 more years of racial tension.

It will become apparent very quickly that Rubio is another hack lawyer with a big mouth and no accomplishments.

Cruz at least went to Harvard and argued cases in front of the Supreme Court. Carsons a brain surgeon, Trump is Trump, even Kasich and Jeb were effective Governors.

Rubio doesnt deserve to be on the same stage as these guys.

Marco went to community college and started running for office (West Miami City Commissioner) as soon as he graduated from law school at UM.

Hes never worked an honest day in his life.

Trump will win NV.

Once you appear to be a winner, an inevitable bandwagon effect happens.

People flock to a winner. Its human nature.
