Marco Rubio's loss is Ted Cruz's gain, a new poll shows.
The Texas senator will benefit most from Rubio's exit from the presidential race, according to new Morning Consult polling.
Among 412 Rubio supporters polled, 47 percent support Cruz as a second choice.
Twenty-seven percent of respondents said they would back Ohio Gov. John Kasich if Rubio dropped out and only 13 percent of Rubio backers said they'd support front-runner Donald Trump....

I have never been a Rubio supporter,
but I am suspicious of the sudden plethora of votes he acquired at the Iowa Caucus.
And very curious about his win in Minnesota which was Kasich’s territory.
Things that make you go hmmmm.

It really isn’t up to him now is it?

I haven’t heard from one here, or anywhere amongst people I know for a long, long time. Not since the Gang of Eight fiasco.

(One time Cruz supporter who now prefers Trump. Yes, there are good reasons.)

By 'mob principles' you mean willing to stand up against the radical Left's attempt to shut down free speech.
Why is isn't the Left concerned about the 'great' conservative Cruz?

Cruz hasn't done anything in the Senate but talk!
He voted for the Fast Track Bill so Obama can have the ability to sell out our freedoms.

It’s hopeless. Despite the truthfulness of what you say, Trump people have been mis-characterizing Cruz’ comments for days now. Cruz clearly blamed the “protesters” for their actions. But Cruz also rightly said the cult leader should set an appropriate tone for his campaign, and that would not include condoning his supporters hitting people in the face, and reminiscing about the days when protesters would be “taken out on stretchers”, or offering to pay the legal fees of supporters who sucker punch protesters being escorted out by the police.

He voted for it before he voted against it. Cruz does 180 on Fast Track

Yes, Cruz did a 180 on Fast Track after finding out that Obama had stuck in additional items.
What a shock, Obama couldn't be trusted!
As for talking in the Senate, he doesn't seem to accomplish much with it.
Talk in the Senate is for the purpose of accomplishing something.

Lot had a hard time talking with the denizens of Sodom, too.
At least Lot got credit for trying.

No, Lot didn't any credit for trying, it showed he had lost his testimony and no one believed what he said-just like Cruz!

Lot fared far better.

They didn't listen to Lot because no one took him seriously since he had compromised so much.
He ended up committing incest in a cave with his two daughters-not a happy ending.

Yep, his wife turned into a pillar of salt and the girls got him drunk and took advantage of him to get pregnant and carry on the family line. Both times in the Bible (the daughters had him on successive nights) it said that Lot was not aware of what happened.
