Title: Establishment start lining up for Rubio
Post by: J P Sousa on February 02, 2016, 12:34:50 PM

First McShame then Mitt now Rubio ?
Rubio of "gang of eight democrats" fame, seems the darling of the Washington establishment but what's with all the so called "Tea Party politicians" joining the establishment ? I guess it's the old "campaign as a conservative" or say anything to get elected bunch.  :censored:

Sen. Marco Rubio scored a key endorsement on Tuesday as South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott gave the Republican presidential hopeful his backing.

Quote

Rep. Trey Gowdy — another South Carolinian who himself endorsed Rubio — last week said Scott would campaign for Rubio in the state, further hinting at an impending announcement.


Scott is one of South Carolina's most popular politicians — enjoying support from conservatives and moderates alike — and his endorsement coupled with Gowdy's gives Rubio the backing of two of the most well-respected lawmakers in the state.

I've never seen...in all the elections I've ever paid attention to...the media talk so extensively about the 3rd place more that the guy who won.

Fox is bad this morning. They make me think that Iowa is the only state that Cruz will win, Trump will take New Hampshire and then Rubio will run the table the rest of the way.
