Rubio very clearly expected there to be another Mitt Romney type, a very dull, very impersonal, but the only sane person on the stage kinda guy. He would latch onto him to get his name out and contrast well as a young high energy cutie pie compared to the crusty old GOP normal crowd and then springboard into better positions and a more proper election later. Now he's in a position where HE'S the saner guy and now he's shooting his load before he's ready because this dude can't campaign worth a drat and has literally nothing to his name to run on. He's going to be destroyed by a Clinton machine and it's going to be hilarious slash used as proof that the GOP actually doesn't need hispanic outreach after all.

I like how Jeb is low-energy, but Carson is SUPER low-energy. Someone should ask Trump to make an energy ranking of the candidates. I would guess:

Jeb! 2016 - Pain is a Part of Life

Latest interview with Megyn Kelly just leaked:

Kelly Files posted:

Jeb: Unbearable, isn't it? The suffering of strangers, the agony of friends. There is a secret song at the center of the world, Megyn, and its sound is like razors through flesh.
Megyn: I don't believe you.
Jeb: Oh come, you can hear its faint echo right now. I'm here to turn up the volume. To press the stinking face of humanity into the dark blood of its own secret heart.

Ok, maybe that is from Hellraiser.

If he drops out it'll likely be after the Mar 15 states, maybe Super Tuesday if he does exceptionally poor across the board.

Asking him if he's gonna drop out before a caucus he wasn't planning on being competitive in and isn't relevant in the first place is kind of a dumb question.

If that was his plan, then why is he abandoning his senate seat? Assuming he's not our next president, his only realistic option for public office is to run for Florida governor in 2018 when Voldemort is term limited, which is already a kick in the balls to go from failed presidential run back to statewide race.

The Rubs strategy is apparently to keep a low profile until right before the primaries, hoping he can absorb the energy of the slain Trump challengers without attracting too much attention himself. It's a risky move, but doing the opposite of whatever ¡Jeb! is doing could pay off.

Because in presidential politics name recognition and past campaign experience is more important. He's using the Palin standard of 'I had to quit (basically) to fight for America better' and it's something that works for people. It's less reactionary than full on 'WE GOTTA ELECT TRUMP WHO HAS NO EXPERIENCE IN ANYTHING! OUTSIDERS!' but it's still enough of a 'I'm not a career politician (ignore my career until now)' to win points.

No, you're right. The Straight Talk Express was a smashing success and ¡Jeb! should emulate it. I totally forgot about President McCain there for a moment.

The Straight Talk Express was a strategy employed by John McCain in the early months of the 2000 and 2008 primaries. It involved eschewing expensive rallies or TV ads and instead relying on a bare-bones bus tour to conduct tons of small events across New Hampshire every day. It worked amazingly well twice. It has nothing to do with the 2008 general election.
