If you go to the Newsmax home page it really does say as a headline: "Rubio Preparing for a Cruz-Trump Collapse in the Polls."

Are we looking at the same polls? If anything Cruz is getting into number 2 not Rubio. Newsmax sometimes makes things up so that people will set their eyeballs on the article for a second. This article is totally bent. Media insanity at its worst.

Rubio will be lucky if he lands that Secretary of Defense position — in the Cruz administration.

I think Rubio is no.3 in Florida. What? If the people of Florida don’t think much of him, I doubt he will win anything.

Funny, I thought he wanted Czar of Immigrant Advocacy.

There is a Cuban taco stand opening up in Miami. Would be perfect for him. He might actually get to know his constituents.

Rubio isn’t qualified to be dog catcher.

Rubio is GOPe to the core of his politician’s heart.

If Cruz ever said he’s willing to consider Rubio for a cabinet level post, that would not reflect well on Cruz.

Agreed!Not only are the facts twisted, but it smells to high heaven of Establishment meddling. Since their golden boy Bush (name recognition don’tchaknow) fell on his face, they have been setting up others and “Sending them over the top.” Rather reminds me of WW I warfare. Establishment is fighting from the trenches, sending their soldiers over the top to be massacred by the machine guns of the enemy because they don’t know what else to do. Politicians are stupidly following what has always worked before. But, there has been a new weapon invented...........the Machine Gun in the form of Donald Trump. Rubio is their last chance and even Floridians don’t want him. He is ESTABLISHMENT Personified!

Rubio is like 11, right.

No depth of experience, no command.

He doesn’t believe what he’s saying, no more than an actor believes a script. Both only try to convey others imaginary thoughts and beliefs.

Morco is Joke!

You are absolutely correct. We elected him as a conservative. First thing he did was sell us out with his big amnesty pitch of the gang of eight. Rubio only cares about Rubio. We made him and we’ll destroy him. He is DONE!

Very good point about fighting the last war. I have always had that impression. If they are fighting the last war and that is not working and they do not know what to do a guy like Trump will crush them. Trump is not fighting the last war. He is fighting a new war and is winning hands down and the enemy does not even understand they are getting slaughtered.

If these rumors are true, Rubio may have poll numbers below 0.

He believes what he is saying like Obama. Is that what you are saying?

Gore lost to W. because he couldn’t even win his own state. Rubio will have a similar problem in the primaries.
