Okay, whatever. Someday you need to learn to think for yourself and not just buy into everything the media tells you.
And don’t you get carried away now.
And what exactly have I "bought into" that "the media has told me?" Based on his own (limited) voting record and his own statements, I've come to the conclusion that Marco Rubio is one of the most dishonest and sleazy characters in the Republican Party. Don't blame the media for this, blame Rubio.
I think Trump is clever in leaking/refuting all these VP rumors, though.
It gives the media something to talk about, it engages the public, it spurs interest in the convention. And most importantly of all:
If freezes potential third-party challengers. Why would Kasich ruin himself for Romney when he's got a chance for the #2 slot with Trump? Same with Cotton from Arkansas. Same with General Mathis.
Those three names have appeared on third-party wish-lists, and they've also been the subject of Trump rumors. Coincidence?
