Isn’t this why Adelson bought the damn newspaper in the first place?

“The Adelsons have detached themselves from our endorsement process, and our endorsement of Sen. Rubio does not represent the support of the family,” the editorial board noted.


Before Iowa and New Hampshire, GOP candidates are competing in the Sheldon Adelson primary, and some will travel to his posh Venetian hotel in Las Vegas this weekend in hopes of winning it. But one candidate — Marco Rubio — has emerged as the clear front-runner, according to nearly a half-dozen sources close to the multibillionaire casino mogul.

In recent weeks, Adelson, who spent $100 million on the 2012 campaign and could easily match that figure in 2016, has told friends that he views the Florida senator, whose hawkish defense views and unwavering support for Israel align with his own, as a fresh face who is “the future of the Republican Party.” He has also said that Rubio’s Cuban heritage and youth would give the party a strong opportunity to expand its brand and win the White House.

“Ok back to Bray Wyatt singing the Sasha Banks theme…”

In no way was LeBron James a part of the decision to fire David Blatt.

My bet is that the Opposition Research industry has folders and folders and folders on Rubio. In the event he ascends to the Republican nomination, he will face a virtual machine gun of stories of his incompetence and corruption that will make one’s head spin. Including his head.

If want your next president to be an outsider, Sen. Rubio is part of the discussion…

How is a sitting U.S. Senator an “outsider?” Oh, that’s right, he doesn’t bother going there very often.

That’s what gets me and I thought I saw it all with NJ.com’s Christie endorsement.

That should be Rubio’s kiss of death.

Could Jeb! actually pull this off? Hmmm.

That reminds me. I have a hankering for some good old fashioned English fish and chips.

Had Jeb smacked Trump around, who knows what would have come from it?

As for a ‘kiss of death’? doubt it. its 2016 and these things are seen as the new normal.

I really want to see what happens in regards to NH, because if Cruz were to pull off a win there.

The new normal according to whom? The media?

And so it begins, the press falls in line for a billionaire. The Review-Journal has now fallen to ‘wrap your fish in it’ status.

“the board chose Rubio, pointing to the years he spent in the Las Vegas Valley as a child”

I was born in north New Jersey, and lived there until grade 2. I hate NJ as an over-developed state, but I guess that now qualifies me to bePresident.
