Lulz:
Three Rubio-friendly conservative writers — Jen Rubin of the Washington Post, Dan McLaughlin of Red State, and Guy Benson of Townhall.com — contend it’s time for Rubio to quit the race and endorse Ted Cruz.
I never could figure out why the right would pick a guy who was everything they hated about Obama. He was an ethnic minority who had some state legislative experience and was serving in his first term in the U.S. Senate. Four years ago, it was bizarre that the Republicans reacted to the passage of Obamacare by nominating Mitt Romney, who basically invented Obamacare. People seriously expected the Republicans to follow that up by nominating a Latino who led the fight to pass comprehensive immigration reform in the Senate?
The guy is good-looking, I’ll give him that. And he’s capable with the right preparation of giving a good speech. But he’s not charismatic. He doesn’t have the special attraction of a Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton, or Barack Obama.
He was clearly out of his league on the big debate stage even before Chris Christie exposed him as a crib note candidate.
I don’t know. I never took him seriously.
He’s a classic case of a person who looks good on paper.
