Yeah, I agree. Killing Rubio's political career and taking the Senate is just too good to be true and the former would be first on my wish list.

He's a young man, he will come back even if he loses. Don't know how or why you would prefer him losing to taking the Senate and being able to do shit like confirm judges, but you do you.

GOP hero Sean Hannity is helping Trump push the "shit's rigged" narrative.

Rubio might be better off just going to work for the Heritage Foundation or some other crappy organization because he's a horrible politician. He has no backbone, no real conviction in what he believes in (he can be bought), and quite frankly, the moment he starts to sweat, people start to look at him funny.

With that said, I'd rather see Rubio back in the Senate than Ted Cruz, who has shown repeatedly that he is the anti-Rubio because he will fight for what he believes in, even if it shuts down the government.

in NBC/WSJ poll, Trump trails Clinton among African-Americans by 91%-1%


there's a bit of a chicken and the egg story going on here that I'd love to see someone smart report about. the only reason this isn't at Reagan Mondale levels yet is because there's enough white men to vote for Trump. if the GOP didn't aggressively push policies and agendas that criminalizes and demonizes minority communities & individuals, would they have enough votes to win this election, or are their policies the reason white men will so reliably vote for them?

outside of America demonstrating how dumb it is again, I think this racial split is the biggest story coming out of this election.

If only Rubio's insistence that women infected with Zika shouldn't be allowed to have abortions would hurt him.

In Florida, I doubt it.

His first comparable on politicalreference would beRick Santorum if he loses this Senate race.

True, no statewide elected official has lost a race and gone on to recover their political career

I.e.

You're afraid he'll pull enough of the Hispanic vote to win the presidency

Don't worry, too many white redneck voters now for him to win primary

I would probably pose Rubio in a tank or other military vehicle in order to project an image of strength.

Remember 7 years ago when every pundit said the GOP needs to get more minority voters? Welp, they spent the past 7 years continuing their coded racism, championing policies that hurt the poor (lots of minorities are poor), and nominated a guy who wants to build a wall and round up illegals who are by the way rapists.

It's amazing anyone who is not a white male would support this dumpster fire of a party. I really can't figure it out other than just coming to the conclusion that this country is mostly full of the politically ignorant and that the Democrats really suck at winning votes.

Following politics the last year has been extremely depressing.

I suspect that most of those voting for Trump are single issue voters, probably gun supporters, evangelicals who vote social issues, etc. But let's also be honest, a good portion of those are bigots who simply are terrified by the fact that the country's demographics are changing. Their white America just doesn't exist anymore.

So is the Trump plan now to make Hillary look like she's crazy or old and senile? That's pretty despicable.
