Thought Trump had PR in the bag - proving his popularity with Hispanics? Now Trump losing to Rubio is going to be good for Trump. Why? Cruz? Thought he was not a threat?
To: gorush
Who. Cares.
I guess he’ll be advocating statehood now....

Isn't that just so precious. The Puerto Ricans are buying Marco Rubio’s Bravo Sierra. OK, they can have him.

Over half of Puerto Rican adults are unemployed.
Many are fleeing to Florida to live. Rubio’s trying to piggyback his island success into a win in Florida using this demographic.

Don’t count on it being bad for Cruz. There is some hanky pamnky going on in these elections.
None of the polls line up with what happens in the end. That can happen once in a while, but not in every state.
Notice, no hanky panky in PR. Rubio was going to win and he did. Cruz 3rd

Something tells me that Rubio won't make much of this in his campaign.
"I won Puerto Rico" isn't likely to resonate with the base.
