Monday on the campaign trail in Reno, NV, Republican presidential candidate
said if his opponent Donald Trump becomes the nominee, the GOP cannot win in November, because half of the Republican Party “hates” him.
Rubio said, “We can’t win if we nominate someone, if we nominate someone that half of the Republican Party hates. We are going to be fighting against each other all the way to November. I don’t care how much you may think they’re funny or how interesting they may sound. If we nominate someone that 40 to 50 percent of our party can’t stand, we are going to lose.”

so Rubio when are you dropping out and endorsing Cruz?
That works both ways, Rubio!
With the number of GOPe pukes now endorsing you, the number of people hating you is growing exponentially!
You sound like an infantile child screaming in hysteric because not everyone share your mindless adoration of your political godlet do jour. Go back to playing with your dolls child, leave the big people to their work
Isn’t it Cruz who over half the country hates, especially after he didn’t do damage control fast enough after the Iowa caucus allegations?
The smartest thing the RNC could do after a few more primaries is to accept a Trump/Rubio ticket as unstoppable and get to work on HOR and US Senate races.
The Memorizer Bunny is The Cheap Labor Express’ last chance at a Designated Loser.
Any amnesty candidate wll be a Designated Loser.
We will not vote for national suicide (amnesty)
So you like amnesty and senseless wars? Bush sent our men to Iraq to finish his daddy’s war. He had a problem with the tile inlay of GHW that Saddam had installed and everyone walked over. We should have been concentrating on Bin Laden - not nation building!
Bite me, jack azz. My Grandfathers, My Father, My husband and my sons all fought for this country.
So, you can go to hell. m’kay?
He’s really thinks he is loved by half... If my math serves me correctly, 75% are not voting for him.
You’re the one who is hysterical and irrational.
However, 75% of Republicans hate the rest of the party!
Right. So the lesson you’ve learned is to stop protecting our country. Right.
Born May 28, 1971
Parents: Mario and Oriales Rubio
Both parents Cuban.
Parents naturalized in 1975, four years after Marco was born.
Not eligible to run for President of the United States. "
Oh so Rubio is loved by 1/2 the party now?
He really thinks he is loved by half... If my math serves me correctly, 75% are not voting for him.
I agree with dforest. Perhaps you don’t have a son in the military or you are ok with us playing Saudi mercenaries.
Well, that’s just it. The Republican Party no longer exists, because half the traditional members of it ARE going to hate whomever is nominated.
These wars in the last years had and have nothing to do with protecting our country.
Protecting our country might start at the borders.
So far I see nothing has happened to make this country any safer or we wouldn’t be talking about it.
Why would you want to kill Trump’s chances of winning by adding a cheap labor importer to the ticket?
That undercuts Trump’s major appeal.
“The smartest thing the RNC could do...”
The RNC hasn’t done anything smart in decades, if ever. Right now the RNC is looking to create a brokered convention if Trump prevails with the popular vote among Republicans in primaries and caucuses across the country. The RNC is working mightily to prevent that. The establishment has fallen behind Rubio now that Bush has pulled out of the race.
IIRC, the choice of VP rests with whomever wins the nomination, not the RNC.
