Marco Rubio Wins D.C. GOP Convention
Marco Rubio after falling behind in the polls now is fourth in most national polls however this recent victory has possibly helped him to reestablish his image. Does Marco Rubio have a chance at this point or should he drop out due to low poll numbers. He is the Republican establishments first choice but right now that does not seem to be doing him any good.

(Is there an article? I tried clicking on the title of this post but it didn't link to anything.) To answer your question, I don't think Rubio will end up being the Republican presidential nominee. Even though he's the Republican establishment's first choice, Kasich and Cruz probably won't drop out, so Trump will still have the largest support base.
ReplyDelete(What Julia said, no link.) I don't think that Rubio will receive the nomination, but I don't think that he will drop out, either. Rubio, Cruz, and Kasich want to take away as many delegates as possible from Trump to make it harder for him to get the Republican nomination.
ReplyDeleteI can't see Rubio receiving the the nomination. I don't see him dropping out either. The field is extremely split at the moment and as of now, Trump has the most support. I just don't think it is currently possible for Rubio to get the nomination.

ReplyDeleteI don't think there is any way for Rubio to receive the Republican nomination due to the devoted Trump and Cruz followers. These are the votes that will remain constant due to that fact that their voters aren't able to be swayed. Also these two leading candidates will not sway to split the votes on the current candidates. Rubio and Kasich voters are the most easily-swayed voters at this point in the election.
ReplyDeleteRubio almost certainly won't get the nominee, but his undying attempt to slow down Trump is what (kept) him in the race as long as he did (he's now out).
ReplyDeleteIf anything has been proven in the current primary race, it's that the establishment had no real value this time around. The voters seem to practically unaffected by what the Republican Party supports. Rubio's campaign never had a good start and with Trump and Cruz battling it out at the top, it comes to no surprise that Rubio found little success.
ReplyDeleteBeing the establishment's first choice would be a good thing in almost any presidential race prior to 2016. Unfortunately for Rubio, it was this year that many Republicans (and Democrats as well for Hillary) decided they were fed up with the establishment. The mainstream Republicans had (or have with Kasich) very little to no chance in the primaries.
ReplyDeleteRubio is not inflammatory and he would normally be a good choice but this is not his year.. fortunately for him he is young and viable and hasn't ruined his career or reputation and is likely to run again with most likely better results.
