My God look at the shirt his mother picked out for that kid to wear.
It’s hilarious, actually. The “new American century” started 16 years ago. Where the hell has he been all this time?

He has another default position: he sweats.

More likely the same stress release that set his mouth in repeated replay in NH debate.

Oh, brother with this God shit! Does Marco Rubio now admit that clearly God wanted Donald Trump to win tonight, because that’s who DID win!

It could be a three man race and he will keep coming in third with hopes of only losing by 20.
It may be a race but he is the ‘slow’ candidate.

Marco Rubio is fighting for single mothers of the 21st century? How? By making sure Medicare and Obamacare never helps get them health insurance, lowering their minimum wage, and cutting their food stamps?
These Republicans sure are all a bunch of sick bastards, but not quite as demented as those who vote for them!

Drugs, supplied by Brother-in-Law and smuggled in by Nikki Haley in a small bottled water.
The side effect is, the more water that he drinks-the thirstier he gets.
He only lost by 130,000 votes or so, he’s right there man, got Trump right in his sights.

He doesn’t sweat! He oozes droplets of gear lubricant.

I simply cannot imagine him as our pres. alternate universe.

I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again – Rubio’s level of knowledge and understanding of both foreign and domestic affairs is about one nanometer deep. He’s got a 15 second talking point on each of the couple hundred issues he’s most likely to be asked about, but beyond that he’s lost.
Lucky for him, his major competition for the Republican nomination are both raging assholes with huge self-inflicted credibility problems of their own.

frasca: “Anybody else notice Rubio’s abnormal mouth and tongue movements during his SC speech?”
Spurred by your comment, frasca, I just watched the whole 10 minute speech. Those mouth and tongue movements were indeed strange and pretty grating to watch. And his shiny face, getting shinier. And his completely formulaic speech with not a hint of originality or authenticity. And being on the verge of dissembling at several points, like when he said Nikki Haley had “faced the string of prejudice.”
I have never seen anything resembling gravitas in Rubio. I can only imagine how he will fare in debates against either Democratic rival. The comparison will not be kind to the young, severely outmatched wannabe president. If he’s truly the most viable candidate the Republicans have to offer in 2016, we Democrats have absolutely nothing to fear in the general.

I did. I thought his tongue and lips were about to do the cha-cha. He’s got a terrible dry mouth problem and Nixonian level sweaty forehead problem (did you see him wipe it)? I really thought he came close to freezing a couple of times in his speech.
Marco, when you finish second, you declare it to be a TWO-person race!
And yes, I know, you only came in second by a handful of votes, Cruz is out-polling you nationwide and has more delegates, etc. etc. But you don’t let facts get in the way of anything else you say. Why pick this moment to be fair and balanced?
Tsk tsk tsk. You know, if Jeb Bush had been running, he never would have made these rookie mistakes.

You joke, but if there’s anyone in that field who would literally do exactly that, and then maybe douse the corpse in gasoline and set fire to it for good measure, it’s Kasich.
He’s the “sane Republican” in the sense that his policies aren’t 100% extreme-fringe stuff. But he’s also a nasty, rabid little weasel by nature (just ask Ohio Republicans!) and he may be staying in the race just because he’s got a whole binder full of Lee Atwater-style ratfucking tricks he’s always wanted to play on a national stage.

I can also see both Cruz and Trump uncorking on Rubio as well. The “outsiders” vs. “the establishment” with the “outsiders” bringing over 50% of the voter support behind them.
Pass the popcorn.
